This PR will add a section regarding subproject maintainers in Harbor's governance documentation.
The reason for this is to ensure contributors within the project can receive elevated privileges and ownership of parts of the project.

Would love to see your thoughts on this, so please discuss.

As outlined in the governance doc, this change would require a supermajority agreement by all maintainers.

love the idea, because it also outlines a path on how to contribute and grow inside the project harbor.
Would definitely try to incorporate some harbor related project under the harbor umbrella.

@goharbor/all-maintainers can we come to an agreement here? IMO it would make much sense to delegate responsibility to subproject maintainers, we have now more subprojects than when this was created. There are also more coming.

Regarding the subproject of Harbor, I believe it is not just a matter of defining roles. We should provide a comprehensive definition of a subproject, which should include:

  1. What is a subproject of Harbor? What criteria should be considered whether a project is to be accepted as a subproject? and How?
  2. How do we measure the quality and release standards of a subproject?
  3. What is the withdrawal mechanism for a subproject? For instance, in the case of Harbor Operator, how do we assess the contribution of a maintainer if the subproject is decided to be deprecated?

Introducing a new role could be beneficial for the community, but we need to establish a clear process for managing subprojects, which we currently lack.

Before introducing new role, we probably need to clean up the subproject firstly, there are some of them are super inactive.
