Notes

RFC 140 Authors and Shepherds situation

• Change co-authors from "The Nixpkgs Archicture Team" to specific people
• Because we are short on shepherds, nominate more people from the team
  • Still prefer non-team members are shepherds in order to get more outside feedback, but if no one is volunteering don't just want the RFC to stall.
• Alex agrees to nominate as a shepherd!
