After rc1, nothing enters the book without a hearing: an advocate, a cutter, the readers, a checker, the editor, and Dinis decides

Every word, change and idea that wants in goes before a board whose seats are roles in their own sessions, so the one arguing against has not been persuaded by the context of the one arguing for. The cutter is the important seat: the default answer is no, because the first edition was liked for being short and punchy and every book grows by things that were each a good idea on their own.

Decided by. Dinis, in The book in release mode (decision 008); the editor records it in the vault

Note. The board's role file is team/board/role.md; its hearings and precedents live in the vault (decision 005).

Where it comes from

What it answers in the 2018 book

Where it goes

Chapter How this book was made, and what you made, part How this book was made, and what you made (drafting); topic How this book was made (the last part).

Other ideas proposed for the same chapter: The repository holds the official versions; the vault holds the working versions, Co-written with Claude, credited, with the ratio shown; short and punchy; every paragraph knows what it is, A personal edition, assembled by an agent, paid for as it is read, Read, comment, decide: the loop that turns Dinis's decisions into versions, An article is how to brief an agent, and the roles keep their names, Release the book we already released: every format from one source, One board for the work, one inventory of everything unfinished, Start from the storyline, as storyboards drawn by code, Everything we do here becomes a graph: ideas as nodes, provenance as edges, state on every node, The name: Generation ZX Developers (GenAI Startup Edition), A hands-on part, dated 2026 and renewed each year, Do the book in release mode: a whole release candidate from the first list, then rounds, then the next candidate, Every verdict is recorded with its reason, and a general reason becomes a precedent that decides the next case without a hearing, A release candidate's working copy is in the vault; the site renders a frozen snapshot of it, marked, never official, The book is measured by how many companies are created from it, and builds a community of the people who tell us, The book is 200 printed pages or more; short and punchy stays the rule for chapters, not for the book, A change decided by precedent goes on a list Dinis can overturn, and Dinis reads the diffs of the book, The hands-on part is inside the book, dated, in the release candidate.
