Hello, community. |
2 |
|
3 |
Gentoo Foundation is currently preparing for an important debate about |
4 |
its own future. As part of that, we're collecting information |
5 |
on various umbrellas, that is existing non-profits that could |
6 |
incorporate Gentoo's assets and provide legal and financial services |
7 |
to us for a relatively small fee (compared to commercial prices |
8 |
for the same services). We have received some initial feedback already, |
9 |
and now we'd like to ask our community for questions they'd like |
10 |
answered. |
11 |
|
12 |
The umbrellas we're researching right now are: |
13 |
|
14 |
- Software in the Public Interest (SPI) [1] |
15 |
- Software Freedom Conservancy (SFC) [2] |
16 |
- Open Source Collective (OSC) [3] |
17 |
|
18 |
We've collected some of the questions we've prepared already at [4], |
19 |
and we'll (well, provided that I get write access because obviously |
20 |
being a Wiki admin isn't enough to actually have access to anything) |
21 |
going to add more as they come. However, please don't ask questions |
22 |
that are already answered in the respective project pages (unless they |
23 |
aren't answered by one of the other projects). |
24 |
|
25 |
We will start publishing the answers shortly, as soon as we get more |
26 |
answers. |
