-Summary
-
-The Blink API owners oversee, enforce and evolve the [Blink Intent
-process](/blink/launching-features). Their most public role is to approve
-experimentation and shipping of new or changed
-[web-exposed](/blink/guidelines/web-exposed)
-[APIs](https://chromestatus.com/features) to Chromium-based browsers.
-
-You can find a list of the current API owners
-[here](https://source.chromium.org/chromium/chromium/src/+/main:third_party/blink/API_OWNERS).
-
-## What is the Blink Intent process?
-
-The [Blink Intent process](/blink/launching-features) - proceeding from
-Prototype to Ship - is how web-exposed features ship in Chromium.
-
-## What are the Blink API owners?
-
-The Blink API owners are the stewards of the [core values of
-Blink](/blink/guidelines/values) and those [values in
-practice](/blink/guidelines/web-platform-changes-guidelines). They achieve this
-by enforcing proper use of the Intent process, which is designed to protect and
-enhance those values.
-
-The Blink Intent process itself is also overseen and evolved by the Blink API
-owners.
-
-## What do the Blink API owners actually do?
-
-It can be summarized as:
-
-* LGTMs from at least three Blink API owners are necessary to ship or
- change a web platform feature in Chromium
-* One LGTM is necessary to start an experiment or a deprecation period
-* The primary task of Blink API owners is to decide whether to give
- those LGTMs
-
-They also give reasons, if needed, why the LGTM was provided or not provided.
-The reasons are needed in cases where it may not otherwise be clear why the
-decision was made. LGTMs are provided via email to
-[blink-dev@chromium.org](https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/g/blink-dev).
-Public discussion about issues of interest to the API owners occurs on
-[blink-api-owners-discuss@chromium.org](https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/g/blink-api-owners-discuss).
-Weekly meetings process the [backlog of intents needing
-decisions](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1pvXEMD5pRioognaqEzglS-4ZBSQ_YmzL8Fiz7yt4Bb4/edit#gid=0&fvid=1112765777).
-Any significant changes to the Intent process also need the approval of the API
-owners.
-
-In practice, the Blink API owners may also help developers through tricky parts
-of the Intent process.
-
-## How do the Blink API owners arrive at their decisions?
-
-The Blink API owners review the Intent process was faithfully followed, and most
-importantly that nothing about experimenting with or shipping these features is
-in conflict with any of the core values of Blink.
-
-The API owners will ask any questions about the evidence provided on the
-blink-dev thread for the Intent, so that everyone can see those questions.
