There should be no confusion or question over whether it has any control or even other influence over the C++ library development. Please avoid any mention of "Steering" or "Direction".

Once again, I am reminded of the experts who reliably inform me that marketing efforts are pointless. Yet here we are subtly accepting that the presentation of a thing should be crafted to manipulate the reader's mind :) Hopefully we will not need another formal review to decide on a new name, so I have taken the liberty to ask the all-knowing AI for advice: C:\Users\Vinnie>ollama run llama3.1:latest political connotations, as they suggest a greater level of control over the project than what is actually possible. Suggest twenty other short names for a group of people who represent a project in the context of a non-profit fiscal sponsorship which are equivalent yet do not suggest any powers beyond those designated. Here are twenty alternative name suggestions for a group that represents a project in the context of a non-profit fiscal sponsorship, without implying undue control: 1. **Project Liaison Team** - emphasizes collaboration and communication 2. **Project Ambassadors** - suggests advocates for the project 3. **Core Project Team** - focuses on key team members 4. **Project Stewards** - implies care and oversight, not control 5. **Advisory Board Members** - positions them as advisors, not decision-makers 6. **Key Stakeholders Group** - emphasizes importance, but not power 7. **Project Champions** - suggests enthusiasm and support 8. **Steering Group Alternatives:** * **Project Guidance Team** * **Project Oversight Committee** * **Project Coordination Group** 9. **The Project Council** - implies a gathering of ideas and perspectives 10. **Project Representatives** - simple, yet effective 11. **Fiscal Sponsorship Team** - highlights the sponsorship aspect directly 12. **Project Advocacy Group** - emphasizes advocacy over control 13. **Project Facilitators** - suggests helping facilitate project progress 14. **Support Team Members** - positions them as supportive helpers 15. **The Project Core** - implies essential, not controlling elements 16. **Governance and Oversight Committee (minus "Steering")** 17. **Project Guidance Council** 18. **Key Players Group** - emphasizes their role in the project's success 19. **Advisory Team Members** - advisors, not decision-makers 20. **The Project Forum** - a space for discussion and collaboration 21. **Player's Club** - suggestive that its members are high-status My personal vote is for number 21. Thank you very much for the work that went into managing the review, and thank you to everyone who participated :) Regards
