Define the release manager role for TeachLink Backend #1558
Description
Background
The Governance/ folder does not yet include a Governance/roles/RELEASE_MANAGER.md document. This is a governance gap: contributors and maintainers lack a clear, versioned reference for this area of governance. Adding the document closes the gap and keeps the change self-contained within the Governance folder.
Implementation Plan
- Create
Governance/roles/RELEASE_MANAGER.mdand document the release manager duties. - Specify release sign-off authority.
- Define the rotation process.
- Add regression tests where applicable
- Document the change
Acceptance Criteria
- Governance requirement is implemented successfully
- Scope is limited to a maximum of two files
- No changes are made outside the Governance folder
- No regression in existing functionality
- Tests pass and code follows project standards
- Change is documented
