What document leads you to believe the Foundation takes an official, as in legal |
| 9 |
stance, of endorsing the Council? |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
Nothing in GLEP 39 mentions the Foundation, declaring the Council to be an |
| 12 |
official institution of the Foundation, etc. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
Is GLEP 39 mentioned by the Foundation By Laws? |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
Do the Foundation, Trustees or Officers play any role in the GLEP process? |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
The Foundation has no official stance on any GLEP, nor on the Council. The |
| 19 |
concept of the Council is completely outside of the Foundation, and detached. |
| 20 |
Thus they have never worked together. Council sees themselves as the top of |
| 21 |
Gentoo, but they are not, the Foundation is, legally. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
There is no organization to Gentoo, linking the Foundation and Council. |
| 24 |
Unifying them under one body, Gentoo to work as one. They work independently |
| 25 |
with different artificial mandates and scopes. |
