Imho, I don't see how anyone could object to something that can only make the Open Source world a better place!

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

Any concerns?

In the mean time, the OSI is interested in adding signatures to their 

recent "Affirmation of the Open Source Definition":



https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__opensource.org_node_966&d=DwMFaQ&c=LFYZ-o9_HUMeMTSQicvjIg&r=CXUZ4nQ3OEMXP344JOLWVg&m=_QU2RqcEQlkT4LRwsuh8gcpA3fHrikk6vO3AAyrk-Ak&s=W8w5hIzgYMF66XtsGkrNJjaUAkoD8mg-Dt__7Ufoxg0&e=



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://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__twitter.com_OpenSourceOrg_status_1093546182465458177&d=DwMFaQ&c=LFYZ-o9_HUMeMTSQicvjIg&r=CXUZ4nQ3OEMXP344JOLWVg&m=_QU2RqcEQlkT4LRwsuh8gcpA3fHrikk6vO3AAyrk-Ak&s=JwEqxHdXZMbwzguEdLUBg9gI1q_1Siokv1uIlD3vUYU&e=



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.
