User-ruled 2026-08-08, after the git excision: the base/Pro split is mooted for now. The charter's anchors collapse to a single version (monetization workstream parked, the generosity tension resolved by construction), 12-editions.md carries the pivot note naming what the companion excision removes (Kanban/Tier/, TierTests, Configuration.storekit and its wiring; the network-client entitlement stays for the future sync service), and the README's tiers bullet becomes the one-version statement. Pro returns with the iPhone + ops-based sync capability as a fresh design pass — a reintroduction, not a resurrection. The code excision itself is handed off.

Release & Distribution Strategy
Long-term strategy work for Lanework's release, distribution, and business model: licensing, monetization, openness, marketing, and goals. Sibling to research/ (the competitive-landscape corpus, which this directory draws on) but different in kind — research/ gathers evidence about the market; strategy/ turns evidence into positions, decisions, and plans for Lanework specifically.
Documents
- 00-charter.md — the framing document: strategic goal, the two tier anchors, what is already ruled, the decision surface, the tensions to resolve, and the research agenda (start here)
- 01-git-excision.md — ruled and executed 2026-08-08 — the plan for removing app-managed git entirely: keepers, harvest, delete list, sequencing, deferred successors; the stack is out, resurrection point at tag
pre-git-excision
Workstream documents are added as they happen, numbered in sequence.
Conventions
- Same conventions as
research/: each document opens with a scope note and a dated line; prose is unwrapped — one line per paragraph or list item. - A position is a working stance open to revision; a ruling is a decision recorded in DESIGN/ or RELEASE.md and stands unless explicitly re-ruled. Strategy documents may propose re-rulings but never silently contradict one.
