Any CWC member may initiate a community proposal on behalf of a project for Foundation's Open Convention Forums.

​
Escalation Matrix: "Right to be heard"

Sometimes Steering Council members and CWC chair may have a difference in their opinion, regarding a community proposal.
In the case, where CWC & Steering Council of the project have a difference in the opinion on a project issue, and the Steering council has rejected the counsel of CWC(within guideline 6), Project CWC can create a "Right to be heard" to the Observation Council. 
The Observation Council members are also humans. They may not have a fitting solution to the issue. In this case, Project CWCs are always free to hold a community referendum on the issue. 
8. CWC members represent the Foundation's project in industry events and activities, and open source communities maintained by other organisations.
