Contributor tenure at admin-permissioned PR
Save (formerly Solend)'s assessment for RD-F-116 — scored yellow on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.
Evidence summary #
SLND1 was authored and submitted by Rooter (founder, ~10 months tenure at time of June 2022 submission). No low-tenure contributor pattern found for admin-permissioned changes. However the SLND1 governance event — which effectively constituted an insider-initiated emergency admin action — was by the most senior/longest-tenure contributor (founder). The structural concern is the bypass of deliberative process, not junior-contributor insertion.
