opentofu-github-pr-1010, Luna A, Luna B, and Terra unanimously classified the TSC summary as a control_event of event kind product, with no power changes and no effective date. Luna A focused on the January 10 OpenTofu GA launch decision, used announced_on: 2023-12-14, body_patch_relation: patch_only, and confidence 0.86; its ambiguity noted that the source records a launch-date decision but not evidence the GA release occurred. Luna B covered the registry namespace and GA launch timing, used announced_on: 2023-12-14, body_patch_relation: consistent, and confidence 0.98. Terra covered the registry namespace, GA timing, and product priorities, used announced_on: 2023-12-11, body_patch_relation: consistent, and confidence 0.88; its ambiguity noted that the merged patch records decisions but not implementation and contains differing December 5 and December 11 registry-namespace decisions. All three outputs were schema-valid with no validation errors. (meaning Dec 11-14, 2023)opentofu-github-pr-1107, Luna A and Luna B classified static evaluation of locals and variables for module sources and backends as a control_event of event kind product, with no power changes, announced_on: 2024-01-11, and no effective date. Luna A used body_patch_relation: consistent, confidence 0.97, and noted that implementation effectiveness was not shown because the PR was closed and unmerged. Luna B used body_patch_relation: not_applicable and confidence 0.98. Terra classified it as no_event, used body_patch_relation: consistent and confidence 0.96, and reasoned that the PR contained product implementation work but no organizational-rights change or demonstrated release. All three outputs were schema-valid with no validation errors. (meaning Jan 11, 2024)opentofu-github-pr-1152, Luna A and Luna B both classified the merged addition of a TSC governance summary and current members as no_event, with no event kind, announcement date, effective date, or power changes. Both used body_patch_relation: consistent; Luna A had confidence 0.93 and noted that the patch documented existing TSC decision authority and membership rather than changing organizational rights, while Luna B had confidence 0.95. Both were schema-valid with no validation errors; Terra had no response or validation result.opentofu-github-pr-1650, Luna A and Luna B classified the addition of missing TSC meeting summaries through May 2024 as no_event, with no effective date or power changes. Luna A used no announcement date, body_patch_relation: consistent, and confidence 0.98; Luna B used announced_on: 2024-05-15, body_patch_relation: consistent, and confidence 0.99. Both were schema-valid with no validation errors. (meaning May 15, 2024)opentofu-github-pr-1650 as an announced_institutional_change of event kind board_or_steering, titled “TSC announced regular posting of meeting notes,” with announced_on: 2024-05-15, no effective date, body_patch_relation: consistent, and confidence 0.75. It coded an added, announced inform right for “TSC members who take notes,” scoped to TSC meetings and targeting public notes, citing body evidence “TSC members who take notes will now post these regularly” and patch:0 evidence “From now on, whomever takes notes during the TSC meeting will also open the PR posting the public notes.” Terra noted that the merged patch announced the future practice but did not demonstrate implementation or compliance. Its output was schema-valid with no validation errors. (meaning May 15, 2024)opentofu-github-pr-2830, Luna A, Luna B, and Terra unanimously classified the merged Charter and Governance changes as an effective_institutional_change, with announced_on: 2025-05-20 and effective_on: 2025-05-23. Luna A used event kind control_rights, body_patch_relation: consistent, and confidence 0.98; Luna B and Terra used event kind board_or_steering, with Luna B using body_patch_relation: patch_supersedes_body and confidence 0.96, and Terra using body_patch_relation: consistent and confidence 0.89. All three outputs were schema-valid with no validation errors. (meaning May 20-23, 2025)opentofu-github-pr-2830 coding identified 5 effective, added powers: 1. the Technical Steering Committee gained set_strategy authority over technical oversight and direction of the OpenTofu project, citing “The Technical Steering Committee (the “TSC”) will be responsible for all technical oversight of the open source Project.”; 2. the TSC gained approve authority over a Contributor becoming a Committer, citing “A Contributor may become a Committer by approval of the TSC.”; 3. the TSC gained remove authority over a Committer, citing “A Committer may be removed by a majority approval of the TSC.”; 4. the TSC gained elect authority over the TSC Chair, citing “The TSC may elect a TSC Chair”; 5. LF Projects gained own authority over OpenTofu Project Trademarks, citing “LF Projects will hold title to all trade or service marks used by the Project (“Project Trademarks”)”. All evidence came from patch:0. Luna A noted that patch selection was truncated but the supplied merged patch contained the implementing provisions.opentofu-github-pr-2830 coding identified 5 effective, added TSC powers: 1. approve a Contributor becoming a Committer in the OpenTofu Project; 2. remove a Committer; 3. appoint representatives to work with other open-source or open-standards communities or organizations working with the project, citing “Appointing representatives to work with other open source or open standards communities or to other organizations working with the Project;”; 4. delegate decision-making authority to maintainers of specific projects under the OpenTofu GitHub organization, citing “The TSC may delegate decision-making authority to maintainers of specific projects:”; 5. override decisions by those maintainers, citing “the TSC retains the right to overrule decisions as necessary”. The first 3 citations came from patch:0 and the final 2 from patch:1. Luna B noted that truncated selected-patch content might omit additional changes, while the visible merged Charter and Governance patches directly implemented the coded rights.opentofu-github-pr-2830 coding identified 3 effective, added TSC powers: 1. approve promotion of a Contributor to Committer; 2. remove a Committer; 3. override decisions across all projects in the OpenTofu organization, citing “The TSC has ultimate authority over all projects in the OpenTofu organization.” and “the TSC retains the right to overrule decisions as necessary”. Each power also cited PR metadata "merged": true, "merged_at": "2025-05-23T12:18:56Z"; the first 2 substantive citations came from patch:0, and the override citations came from patch:1. Terra noted that patch selection was truncated and the Charter described itself as an amendment, so the supplied evidence established merged governance implementation but not all prior governance rules or all changed files.
