Hi, I am a developer with the Player Project (playerstage.sf.net), an open source robotics framework. We are looking to move the project forward in terms of its organisational structure and I have had many recommendation against forming our own 'foundation' or legal entity for these purposes citing time, cost and other complications. The logical alternative would be for the project to join something along the lines of the SPI.
The player project has been in existence for several years now and has a codebase that is widely used amoung research and academic facilities and increasingly in commercial projects. The developers are of course committed to open source, the core libraries are licensed under the LGPL and the utilities and simulators are licensed under the GPL. Does this sound like a project that would fit with SPI, and if so what are the steps to becoming a member project?
