@err931 Absolutely, unequivocally yes.
The spec remains open source and under open governance – noting that Synapse and Dendrite only ever checked one of those boxes. And indeed, the soon-to-be-formed Governing Board will be a significant improvement to current open governance of the spec and the Foundation.
That said, the Governing Board is just the next big step. We intend to continue taking steps to actualize community governance and further enhance the open source commons around Matrix.
