Blog: Drupal AI Initiative announces new governance structure (Board & Leadership Team)
## Problem/Motivation
Follow-up announcement to last week's Inside AI / Outside AI post. This one covers how the Drupal AI Initiative is scaling its governance: a new three-tier model of Drupal AI Board, Drupal AI Leadership Team, and the existing AI Partners community. Full draft text lives in the source [Google Doc](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1FLRTwAY5AZTiv4Bfba-1zkHc8I8NSFScZCCsb259doQ/edit?usp=sharing).
## Proposed resolution
Adapt the source draft into a copy of the [Blog Template](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1sIlMwB10F7HU6UNNVzs7AedrgYYt_f8BaHqy7a_ztkg/edit?tab=t.0#heading=h.odehl6fbk0z) (File \> Make a copy) — don't edit the master template. The doc still has two open review comments to resolve ("needs new graphic" for the org-chart placeholder, and a note that "Functional Leads" naming may be revisited) before this is ready to publish at [drupal.org/about/ai/initiatives/blog](https://www.drupal.org/about/ai/initiatives/blog).
