Authority and change

These documents are canonical together, not independently. The Constitution governs changes. The Lexicon governs the project’s defined terms. The Foundations explains the underlying worldview. The remaining documents translate that worldview into collective practice, design, communication, and inquiry.

Every material revision should include:

1. a version and date;
2. the reason for the change;
3. the evidence or experience motivating it;
4. affected documents and terms; and
5. a record of the decision process.

Canonical does not mean unchangeable. It means that changes are deliberate, traceable, and made through the project’s own principles.
