+# `perspective` Charter
+
+`perspective` is a data visualization and analytics component, especially
+well-suited for large and/or streaming datasets.
+
+## Section 0: Guiding Principles
+
+The `perspective` project is part of the [OpenJS Foundation][openjs foundation],
+which operates transparently, openly, collaboratively, and ethically. Project
+proposals, timelines, and status must not merely be open, but also easily
+visible to outsiders.
+
+## Section 1: Scope
+
+`perspective` is a data visualization component, any features related to data
+visualization on any platform are potentially in scope.
+
+## Section 2: Relationship with OpenJS Foundation CPC.
+
+Technical leadership for the projects within the [OpenJS
+Foundation][openjs foundation] is delegated to the projects through their
+project charters by the
+[OpenJS Foundation Cross-Project Council](https://openjsf.org/about/governance/)
+(CPC). In the case of the `perspective` project, it is delegated to the
+[`perspective` Maintainers](GOVERNANCE.md#maintainers) (the “Maintainers”). The
+OpenJS Foundation's business leadership is the Board of Directors (the “Board”).
+
+This `perspective` Charter reflects a carefully constructed balanced role for
+the Maintainers and the CPC in the governance of the OpenJS Foundation. The
+charter amendment process is for the Maintainers to propose changes using simple
+majority of the full Maintainers, the proposed changes being subject to review
+and approval by the CPC. The CPC may additionally make amendments to the project
+charter at any time, though the CPC will not interfere with day-to-day
+discussions, votes or meetings of the Maintainers.

+
+- _Contributors_: contribute code or other artifacts, but do not have the right
+  to commit to the codebase. Contributors work with the project’s maintainers to
+  have code committed to the code base. A Contributor may be promoted to a
+  Maintainer by the Maintainers. Contributors should rarely be encumbered by the
+  Maintainers and never by the CPC or OpenJS Foundation Board.
+
+- _Maintainers_: Contributors with any kind of decision-making authority in the
+  project.
