Hand Over
Give away the authority itself; after the handover, no advice, check-ins or quiet corrections.
Formerly Handoff
The maintainer whose successor can change the license without asking.
Seen in Pierre Huyghe and Philippe Parreno, No Ghost Just a Shell, 1999–2002
Try it on your work
Give the thing you're working on to someone else to continue: materials, state, and standing questions, accepting their direction as its direction. Answer their questions, then step back. Watching without steering is the second half of the task.
Teach one thing you do until the learner can teach it back to you with their own examples, not yours. Their examples are the proof; your nodding is not.
Transfer one running responsibility completely (access, authority, and the right to change it) and remove your own access as the final act. What you felt at the removal is the size of what you were holding.
How it has been used
Transfer full ownership so the thing continues without you: the relay baton, the succession-planned business, the open-sourced tool. The move forbids the trailing hand: advice, check-ins and quiet corrections after the transfer are the operation failing in slow motion.
