# `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.

## Section 5: Definitions
|
||
|
||
- _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.
