From 439aea6b8b0f94f917e3f8b0533bfcdbc0b85c36 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rob Findley Date: Mon, 23 Jun 2025 19:31:29 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] CONTRIBUTING.md: further clarify 'steering committee' Futher clarify that the 'steering committee' is what we normally would call a 'working group', in the preamble to the antitrust policy.
