Research direction

Open the existing “Transparent cross-team decision-making using RFCs” pattern and its Known Instances section, then review the linked SoundCloud article and RFC description. Add SoundCloud as a documented known instance with the relevant links; done means the pattern accurately reflects the public source material and the links work.

Description

:tiger2: patterns-in-the-wild

SoundCloud mentions their RFC process in here:
This article from 2022 mentions the RFC approach, and points back to a description of the approach from 2018.

It should be possible to add this as Known Instance to our existing pattern, as SoundCloud are already talking about it publicly:
https://patterns.innersourcecommons.org/p/transparent-cross-team-decision-making-using-rfcs#known-instances

They seem to have extensive experience with it, if somebody from SoundCloud would review and extend our pattern that would be a great improvement too!
