# Corp v1 Board

This repository is the authoritative governance workspace for starting, governing, and closing Corp v1 projects.

## Registries

| Registry | Purpose |
|---|---|
| [Projects](/projects/) | Portfolio status, ownership, lifecycle, and outcomes |
| [Teams](/teams/) | Team mandates, responsibilities, and project assignments |
| [Members](/members/) | Member identity, roles, and team membership |
| [Board](/board/) | The only members authorized to approve project kickoff, project closure, and `corp-v1--main` changes |

## Operating principle

Every project has a named sponsor, accountable lead, team, explicit status, Board-approved kickoff decision, and—when closed—a Board-approved closure record with retained artifacts and lessons learned.
