[TWiki-Dev] Invitation to debate on TWiki association membership

[Kenneth L. <ke...@la...>]

All

I have been given the task in the Interim Governance Team to propose a 
set of regulations for the TWiki Association which will be the key 
democratic entity that owns the open source TWiki project.

The idea is that it is an open association that anyone can become a 
member of. The membership gives the right to vote for the Executive 
Committee that will take over the daily leadership of the project from 
the current Interim Governance Team.

I need input from any community member so I can draft this part of the 
proposal based on YOUR input.

The question I am asking is *How do you become a member of the 
association?*

I have put this subject as the first item on the release meeting agenda. 
After the meeting we can continue the talks. If you cannot make the 
19:00 GMT time but arrive an hour later you are welcome to join in. I 
expect this topic to be 90% of the release meeting. I only want to spend 
5 minutes on bug items.

I have created a Codev topic 
http://twiki.org/cgi-bin/view/Codev/TWikiAssociationMembershipDebate

The idea of this is to collect ideas. Please give each other extra room 
for silly proposals and non-filtered brainstorming.
