For those of you whom haven’t subscribed to the gentoo-nfp mailing list, Alec Warner (aka antarus) just sent an informative email that explains a little more about what is going on with the foundation status. He also requests for suggestions on how to proceed regarding the foundation status.
There are a number of folks working on this issue; this thread is an
attempt to move conversations off of gentoo-core (internal only) and
onto gentoo-ftp (a more public list).Renat is currently working on getting our expired New Mexico filings
so he can show them to some lawyers he knows in order to get some
recent advice on how we could proceed.See [1] for more info.
There has been talk internally about whether accepting Daniel’s offer
is a good idea. I think the only conclusion we can really draw at
this point is that the timeframe alloted is currently too short to
make a good choice in the matter. Some people want to vote, others
want more details regarding Daniel’s plans, etc.I believe there are a group of folks working to formulate the
necessary communique to Daniel to get their concerns addressed (I’m
not going to list them here or leak the contents of the request but I
will say it is going on).A number of folks have volunteered to get the Foundation back in order
should Daniel not grant a time extension or should the existing
Trustees reject his request.I want to try to make the point of this thread clear; I’m trying to
keep the general community informed about the internal progress of
what is going on. I’d appreciate useful feedback about how we could
proceed on the matter.The intention of this list is to be about the non-profit foundation;
if you have problems with the distribution itself or other technical
matters, please direct them to gentoo-dev or gentoo-project.Thanks,
-Alec
