+## Maintainers
+
+Devfile Maintainers have write access to the [Devile GitHub organization repositories](https://github.com/devfile).
+They can merge their own patches or patches from others. The current maintainers
+can be found in [MAINTAINERS](./MAINTAINERS).  Maintainers collectively manage the project's
+resources and contributors.
+
+This privilege is granted with some expectation of responsibility: maintainers
+are people who care about the Devfile project and want to help it grow and
+improve. A maintainer is not just someone who can make changes, but someone who
+has demonstrated their ability to collaborate with the team, get the most
+knowledgeable people to review code and docs, contribute high-quality code, and
+follow through to fix issues (in code or tests).
+
+A maintainer is a contributor to the project's success and a citizen helping
+the project succeed.
+
+## Becoming a Maintainer
+
+To become a Maintainer you need to demonstrate the following:
+
+  * commitment to the project:
+    * participate in discussions, contributions, code and documentation reviews
+      for 3 months or more,
+    * perform reviews for 5 non-trivial pull requests,
+    * contribute 5 non-trivial pull requests and have them merged,
+  * ability to write quality code and/or documentation,
+  * ability to collaborate with the team,
+  * understanding of how the team works (policies, processes for testing and code review, etc),
+  * understanding of the project's code base and coding and documentation style.
+
+A new Maintainer must be proposed by an existing maintainer by submitting a new post to the
+[Devfile API discussion board](https://github.com/devfile/api/discussions). A simple majority vote of existing Maintainers
+approves the application.
+
+Maintainers who are selected will be granted the necessary GitHub rights,
+and invited to the [private maintainer mailing list](https://lists.cncf.io/g/cncf-devfile-maintainers).
+
+## Meetings
+
+Time zones permitting, Maintainers are expected to participate in the public
+developer meeting, which occurs
+
+Every Tuesday at 9am EST ([video call link](https://meet.google.com/trx-vqbw-ekb))
+
+Maintainers will also have closed meetings in order to discuss security reports
+or Code of Conduct violations.  Such meetings should be scheduled by any
+Maintainer on receipt of a security issue or CoC report.  All current Maintainers
+must be invited to such closed meetings, except for any Maintainer who is
+accused of a CoC violation.
+
+## CNCF Resources
+
+Any Maintainer may suggest a request for CNCF resources, either in the
+[mailing list](TODO: link to developer/maintainer mailing list), or during a
+meeting.  A simple majority of Maintainers approves the request.  The Maintainers
+may also choose to delegate working with the CNCF to non-Maintainer community
+members.
+
+## Code of Conduct
+
+[Code of Conduct](./code-of-conduct.md)
+violations by community members will be discussed and resolved
+on the [private Maintainer mailing list](https://lists.cncf.io/g/cncf-devfile-maintainers).  If the reported CoC violator
+is a Maintainer, the Maintainers will instead designate two Maintainers to work
+with CNCF staff in resolving the report.
+
+## Voting
+
+While most business in Devfile is conducted by "lazy consensus", periodically
+the Maintainers may need to vote on specific actions or changes.
+A vote can be taken on [Devfile API discussion board](https://github.com/devfile/api/discussions) or
+[the private Maintainer mailing list](https://lists.cncf.io/g/cncf-devfile-maintainers) for security or conduct matters.  
+Votes may also be taken on [Devfile API discussion board](https://github.com/devfile/api/discussions).  Any Maintainer may
+demand a vote be taken.
+
+Most votes require a simple majority of all Maintainers to succeed. Maintainers
+can be removed by a 2/3 majority vote of all Maintainers, and changes to this
+Governance require a 2/3 vote of all Maintainers.
