Hello, my name is Thomas S Hatch,
I am a Community Developer (Trusted User) for the Arch Linux project and
have been asked by the project leader, Aaron Griffin, to look into Arch
Linux joining SPI.
Arch Linux is a large Linux distribution made up of over 50 developers
and has a thriving community and user base.
Right now we are looking into the best way to accept financial
contributions and SPI appears to be a great choice.
If I can, I would like to ask a few questions:
1. Would Arch Linux be eligible to join SPI?
I don't see why not.
2. Could we be considered in conflict with Debian since we are both
Linux distributions (Hopefully we can improve cross distribution
collaboration!)?
I don't see a conflict. This is Open Source.
3. My understanding is that money is held and managed by SPI and then we
would request it, is there a document on the process?
I will defer to the treasurer on this.
4. As far as I can tell joining is simply the act of being voted in and
an application, what else is required and is there a document on it?
