The '''Steering Committee''' is the founding governance body of WikiDeal. It is currently '''in the process of being constituted''': this is the very beginning of the project, and nothing is fixed at this stage. For the time being, this responsibility rests with the Council of the [https://ynternet.org Ynternet.org Foundation].
The reference description of the Steering Committee and of the supervision structure (purpose and progressive transfer to the users, three-level structure, commissions, appointment, composition, organic constitution process, current situation) is maintained at '''[[Gov/en/Portal:Institutions/Steering-Committee|Steering Committee]]''' in the Gov space. This charter page records the formal status of the charter and its remaining open points.
 
== Purpose ==
 
The Steering Committee is intended to guide the first steps of WikiDeal governance. Its members are invited to give their opinion and advice on the direction of the project. Over time, the Steering Committee is intended to hand over its responsibilities to the thematic committees ([[Policies/en/Technology-Committee-Charter|Technology]], [[Policies/en/Market-Committee-Charter|Market]], [[Policies/en/Governance-Committee-Charter|Governance]] and the other committees listed in the [[Policies/en/Main|policies index]]), as those committees come into existence.
 
== Appointment ==
 
The Steering Committee is appointed by the Council of the Ynternet.org Foundation.
 
== Composition ==
 
The Steering Committee is composed of:
 
* members of the Council of the Ynternet.org Foundation;
* members of the Scientific Council of the Ynternet.org Foundation;
* people selected for the added value they bring, based on their previous experience and their participation in projects following the same tendency.
 
== An organic constitution process ==
 
The constitution of the Steering Committee is intended as an organic process:
 
* Members are invited to give their opinion and advice.
* They are invited only once enough Donations have been received for funds to be genuinely distributed.
* At the beginning there would be one, two or three people; progressively, more members would join.
* Progressively, the Steering Committee would pass the baton to the thematic boards (technology, market, policy and the others), as they come into existence.
 
== Current situation ==
 
The Steering Committee is currently being constituted. Because this is the very beginning of the project, nothing is settled yet. For now, this role is in the hands of the Council of the Ynternet.org Foundation:
 
* The members of the Council are registered in the Swiss commercial register.
* The Council meets periodically, according to the progress of the various projects of the Foundation. WikiDeal is the main project, but not the only one: other projects can be seen on the [https://ynternet.org Ynternet.org Foundation website].
* The operational director of the Foundation is '''Athanasios Priftis'''. See his TEDxGeneva talk: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nrdu7NMcOOY "Ever tried to open a government?"] (TEDxGeneva 2014).
