Ok Thunderbird kindly mangled my original re-post of this and crashed |
| 17 |
(wtg Tturd) .. but the thrust was this. In light of the above (which I |
| 18 |
agree with):- |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
Foundation |
| 21 |
======= |
| 22 |
Legal entity |
| 23 |
Deals with finance |
| 24 |
Deals with compliance |
| 25 |
Provides Infra |
| 26 |
Provides/oversees Staff |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
Council |
| 29 |
===== |
| 30 |
Fulfils aim of Linux Distribution |
| 31 |
Oversees projects |
| 32 |
Innovates and develops |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
Both are Foundation and Council are elected bodies from the staff |
| 35 |
electorate. |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
Anyone with any objections to this structure? |
