== Project Leadership Committees

PLCs are comprised of volunteers, academics, and industry professionals

that represent a Project's community and make decisions about a Project's

technical direction (``PLC Persons''). Conservancy understands and

expects that many PLC Persons exploit professional skills relating

to their Project as individuals by providing developing, consulting,

and/or training services. Nonetheless, each PLC Person has a duty

to act in the best interests of his or her Project when making technical

decisions about the Project.
