Proposal |
15 |
|
16 |
- All prospective staff must apply to be Foundation members, allowing |
17 |
for final approval by the trustees as is the current policy. Anyone not |
18 |
accepted will not be given staff membership. |
19 |
|
20 |
- Any Foundation membership granted as a result of a staff position is |
21 |
lost when the position as staff is concluded. |
22 |
|
23 |
- Any staff that is kicked or leaves during a ComRel incident may |
24 |
appeal their incident with the appropriate body. They will either |
25 |
retain or lose both staff and foundation membership simultaneously. |

Knock on effects |

|
31 |
- May need to modify staff quiz. Developers already take this so will |
32 |
automatically satisfy this requirement. |
33 |
|
34 |
Positive CoC acknowledgement should be included in the staff quiz |
35 |
|
36 |
- By equating staff and Foundation membership we may have to change the |
37 |
retirement criteria for staff. |

- Staff will have to vote in Foundation elections. |

Questions |
47 |
|
48 |
- Do staff get gentoo.org email addresses? |
49 |
|
50 |
- I do not think it’s necessary |
51 |
(limits our liability (email addresses could be considered as loosing |
52 |
property rights as mentioned elsewhere in one of these threads...), maybe) |
