Simeon introduced the Mojaloop Workstream Governance Guidelines, provided a status on the implementation of each guideline, and confirmed that this document will be integrated into the documentation outline currently under development.

A discussion arose regarding accountability, to which Simeon remarked that the Charters, collectively developed by the community, serve as a mechanism for ensuring accountability within each committee.

It was emphasized that these are community-led groups, not legal entities.
