I've not been through the process before of moving Collective code to
the Foundation, but I know Jarn has done this, so perhaps Geir can
enlighten us there on whether any additional steps are required other
than making sure all contributors have signed the Contributor
Agreement.
I don't know of any special considerations beyond the normal ones.
- Code must meet Plone's quality assurance level. (i.e pass PLIP review)
- All contributors must have signed the agreement.
- Some sort of consensus that the code is of general use to Plone and
the community, and that the community is the best entity to manage
maintenance long term.
- Licensing
There is a step missing here: contributors must not only have signed the
agreement, they must explicitly allow that specific code to be donated
to the foundation. Signing the contributor agreement does not mean all
your code can be moved at will to the foundation.
Wichert.
