Maybe we need to see if there are any objections to signing up to the "Affirmation of the Open Source Definition":

https://opensource.org/node/966

 

>From my side, it seems that this is consistent with the foundation’s principles.

 

Any concerns?

[EXTERNAL EMAIL] 

In the mean time, the OSI is interested in adding signatures to their 
recent "Affirmation of the Open Source Definition":

https://opensource.org/node/966

According to [1], this is not limited to their affiliates, and they 
"will add more organizations as they reach out to be included".

[1] https://twitter.com/OpenSourceOrg/status/1093546182465458177

I think this is a statement the OSF can get behind, and it does not come 
with further requirements. Time is of the essence to add ourselves to 
that, since they are still making a lot of communications around this. I 
propose that we reach out the OSI to add the OpenStack Foundation 
immediately to that list of signatures, in parallel to pursuing formal 
OSI affiliation.

 

I'd support this path +1 @ttx

 

+1 from me as well.
