Growing Your Design Proposal Process To Meet Your Needs

This conference talk explores how to evolve your design proposal process as your project grows, featuring insights from Fabian Deutsch (Red Hat) and Dipesh Rawat (IBM). Learn how the Kubernetes Enhancement Proposal Process has adapted to high velocity demands and how KubeVirt developed its own process after starting with none. Discover different approaches to design proposals that support better solutions, long-term maintenance, openness, and feature prioritization. Gain practical lessons from their journeys to help scale or establish your own design proposal process effectively, whether you're managing a small project wondering if you need a formal process or a growing project facing increasing complexity.
