Can we just change this to a Pull Request instead of an issue? I don't have a problem with including the amendment label.

Unless someone can tell me why it's better to propose a change in an issue and then copy the proposal to a PR.

I'm not against someone opening an issue first if it seems warranted. I'm just against it as a requirement, because the PR is the thing that needs to be reviewed and get approval, not the issue.

Given that this is governance, I think having the issue makes sense for a notice period so everyone is aware of a pending change. Then the PR is simply the execution of the decision. We can easily backtrack issues for PRs that get opened prematurely.

- Issue must also have the `amendment` label added
- A 14-day comment period
- Approval by two-thirds of the Steering Committee
