My other thoughts are that overall this seems a bit overbearing and I cannot think of another open source project/community that has any agreements like this. Sure there are Contributor License Agreements and Code of Conduct's both of which we have but nothing like this... I'm just wondering what were hoping to achieve with this document? _______________________________________________ governance mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/governance
