Here is a first draft of such a policy. For your convenience, I've integrated it in a revamped list description, as the policy should be publicly advertised anyhow. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Name: [email protected] Rationale: (unchanged) Short description: discussions about companies offering Debian support and contributing back Long description: Discussions about the needs of companies that contribute to, offer support for, or have other strategic interests in Debian. List participation is restricted to representatives of companies that offer Debian-specific support or services and that are determined to contribute to Debian. As an approximation of the above, subscription requests will be verified against the following criteria: - the requested subscription address should be a company address (i.e. its domain name should correspond to a company website) - the company should advertise on its website Debian-related support or services, mentioning the Debian name or logo, and linking back to the Debian website (please provide a link to that page in your subscription request) - at least 2 Debian project members (AKA Debian Developer) should be working for the company (please name them in your request) - preferably, the person requesting subscription should be able to speak as a company representative, at least for the topics of interest of the mailing list ------------------------------------------------------------------------ I think it matches your requirement of being verifiable, at least as long we assume some good faith, as I think we should. The first 3 points are easily verifiable. The last point is not, but it is optional. Cheers. -- Stefano Zacchiroli zack@{upsilon.cc,pps.jussieu.fr,debian.org} . o .
