The link from the RFC page to the new page resolves as https://ngff--427.org.readthedocs.build/rfc/index.html#../resources/process/process.md

Thanks, @lubianat, for driving this. As discussed with @clbarnes and @jo-mueller, converting the Google Drawing to a SVG might be something we still want to consider. If you think that will delay getting this out, 👍 for splitting into multiple parts.

Also as we discussed, for the text change, it might still be worth thinking through whether this actually is the beginning of a wider "governance" document and either way, we likely need to make it clear that any (significant) change to this document requires an RFC of its own.

@joshmoore I think changing to SVG might improve readability, but may come itself with a set of issues (e.g. mobile view, screen types and such). There could be other visualization options, but maybe splitting is better to avoid dragging this PR too long.

What would be the minimum for getting this out? Maybe a disclaimer on the top?

This document is based on the process reviewed and approved in [RFC 1]. Any significant changes to the approved process would require a new RFC.

Perhaps something similar to the Warning in #404

Would this suffice to mitigate risks?

Yeah, let's get that in place and then I'll make one read through and we can move forward.

This was the best I could do w.r.t. readability. Not everything is perfect as the sphinx-myst-rst-md-mermaid interfaces have a lot of small details

The text (for the flowchart) is revised and matching RFC 1 to the best that I can.
