# Release Notes

## Governance Update

OpenEnv is openly governed by a technical committee that includes Hugging Face,
Unsloth, Reflection, and Meta PyTorch. The committee coordinates project
direction, major technical decisions, RFCs, and release planning through the
public issue tracker, pull requests, and RFC process.

This governance model keeps OpenEnv community-centered while preserving a clear
technical coordination path. OpenEnv standardizes how environments are
packaged, deployed, and consumed by agents. Reward definitions, scoring
rubrics, and trainer-specific logic can continue to live in the libraries that
specialize in them.

For substantial changes, open an issue or RFC before implementation so the
technical committee and community can discuss scope, compatibility, and release
timing.
