It is not yet clear if or how the w3c font-text Community Group will bring
proposals to amend the OFF spec to this AHG. But I'm sure the convention of
using GitHub will play a big role:

Now the AHG has a GitHub repo, as soon as the CG had a GitHub repo, then
there will be some linking up on GitHub of related issues between the two,
just by including a link to another issue in the text of an issue.

Also the various other "upstream" GitHub repos, like CommonType, AOTS, the
Microsoft Typography-Issues repo, googlefonts COLR gradients repo, the
unofficial OpenType org repos, etc.

This "network effect" of most projects being hosted on GitHub is powerful.
