From 15b46422645d1ed4e40bfa78930690f2b4f4010d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rich Trott Date: Wed, 12 Oct 2016 22:12:11 -0700 Subject: doc: remove confusing reference in governance doc At the CTC meeting today, Sakthipriyan noted that there was a link to the CTC consensus material from the pull request consensus material. The link was confusing because the CTC consensus material is meeting-specific, which does not apply to pull requests. I have removed that link and replaced it with a text explanation.
