The process is maintained by our Advisory Board @w3CAB (yes, they too are on Twitter!) with input from the public via the W3C Process Community Group w3.org/community/w3process/ Congrats to @chaals for shepherding that latest set of updates!

W3C Process Community Group

Examine the way W3C works. Propose improvements to the formal processes. These will be given to the Advisory Board, which currently manages that process.
