75% vote to change targets

I like the 75% steering committee vote. I think you want to keep it to a minimum. Charter absolutely makes sense, and CoC makes sense simply because changes to a CoC can rip a community apart.

I think antitrust and trademark don't need the 75%. Really what they want for changes is "Don't change these unless you know what you're doing", and the same is true for the project's license, notice file, dependency-decisions (based on licensing) etc. Community norms will protect those two files from being unreasonably modified.

Thanks for the feedback here. I'm with you on most of these, but would prefer to keep trademark. A neutral mark is the hallmark of an organization, and allowing a simple majority to change that policy to tilt it to non-neutral could be harmful. Thoughts on this?
