Problem
The foundation-process single-maintainer bootstrap exception expires on 2026-09-30.
Scope
Track the expiry while keeping the public sole-maintainer roster truthful. This record authorizes no access change and no appointment.
Non-goals
Do not grant repository access, appoint a maintainer, or extend the exception without a separately authorized governance decision.
Acceptance
Before 2026-09-30, record an authorized governance disposition. After expiry, stale bootstrap evidence receives zero readiness credit.
Validation
Compare MAINTAINERS.md, policy/governance-lifecycle.json, and remote direct collaborators without changing access.
Dependencies
GOVERNANCE.md foundation-process bootstrap rules.
Risk
Expired exception evidence cannot support governance readiness.
Rollout
Keep open until a valid post-bootstrap governance record exists.
Observability
Weekly automation updates this one marker-owned issue.
Documentation
Keep sole-maintainer status and exception state public.
Compatibility
No protocol compatibility impact.
Generated artifacts
No generated artifact is changed by issue automation.
Agent authorship
Automation maintains the record; @enoreyes owns disposition.
