Katie Miller
Jonathan LeBlanc
Added:
Arun Gupta
Divya Mohan
Tabs Fakier
Added a Chairperson section in README.md:
Current Chairperson: Wesley Faulkner
Added new guideline document:
guidelines/sc_chairperson_nomination_guidelines.md
Covers Chairperson nomination and election process, eligibility, term/vacancy handling, responsibilities, and time commitment
Expanded Chairperson responsibilities to include:
Budget oversight and budget approval coordination
Partnerships and industry outreach coordination
Why
