May 2025 monthly summary for envoyproxy/envoy: Focused on governance and ownership improvements to increase accountability and PR throughput. Delivered realignment of maintainer roles and code ownership, with clear responsibilities and smoother decision making. No major user-facing features added this month; the primary deliverable was governance. Key changes included updating maintainership and cache ownership, and adjusting review responsibilities. Evidence of changes is in two commits: bde82eaac3835a2e599ac6e71588fb634c278dfc (swap maintainer and cache ownership assignments) and 87864150b0623f98d320f96b70f0be7ac9dd4e75 (remove Josh from rotations and code ownership). This work improves governance, accountability, and PR cycle times, reducing risk during releases.
