Hi,

I think that if we go down that path we'll lose some valuable time revoting
  on it. The SC's mission ends when the BoD is elected and that is very
clear, but until then, if decisions have to be made we should not refrain
from making them. (Although I understand the need not to rush anything - but
joining the OASIS is not exactly a rushed decision).


well, I have no problem with deciding, but still, decisions are not 
binding for the future BoD, so we should keep that in mind. :-)

+1, if we have the money, and when the Foundation legally exists. The 
current budget is already *very* tight, so we cannot spend more until we 
have some more income.

So let me rephrase this proposal. Given the membership fee, do you

Best,

I think it is, but on the other hand we can vote positively now, but
only proceed to join when we are properly set up. Even the membership
registration process takes time there. So we can decide now and execute
in 2 months or so.

Best,
Charles.

Hi Charles, all,

wearing my TDF hat here (and not my OASIS one - with that, I'd
warmly welcome this move) - before starting to approve things like
this, I'd rather collect a few more things we may need to do this
year, and come up with a proper budget plan.

Before the foundation is formally setup, I don't think joining
somewhere is really possible, anyway?

Cheers,

-- Thorsten

[steering-discuss] Joining the OASIS Consortium

2011-06-15 Thread Charles-H. Schulz
Hello,

I remember we wanted to join the OASIS Consortium :-)
After checking within the OASIS, it appears the annual membership cost
for NGO is around 700 Euros (1100 USD).

I would like to ask officially to the SC to approve this membership fee
and process to the membership registration process. Sophie Gautier
would be the primary contact person, while Thorsten (under Suse
flagship) would lead the technical works, at least at the beginning.
We're interested by letting more hackers join in, just ask for it :-)
