I think we need to clarify what means “supporter”.  In my mind, a
Supporter is a person that commits to help the Author in crossing the
final line.

During the Discussion Period, we discuss, all.  The aim of Supporter is
to keep the RFC on track.  Especially, to let space and time to all to
express their voice.  Nix names this Role: Shepherd.  Maybe it captures
better the idea.

Then during the Deliberation Period, team members reply “I support”.

WDYT?

BTW, I like “Guix Common Document“ [1] instead of Request-For-Comment as
suggested by pukkamustard.


Cheers,
simon
