Closed apastsya closed 7 years ago

apastsya commented 10 years ago

Jira issue originally created by user heathervc:

The Affiliate member class for individuals (corporations and non profits are ineligible).

JSPA replaced by a simplified membership agreement that still involves a personal IP commitment.

No employer signature required.

Affiliate members cannot act as Spec Lead, join an Expert Group, or run for EC.

Affiliates can be formally recognized at the Spec Lead's discretion by being listed as Contributors to a JSR.

Affiliate members are eligible to vote for two Community EC Member seats in the EC Elections. These seats will be taken from the existing pool of Elected seats.

Affiliate members are not eligible to vote for Elected or Ratified seats.

Full and Partner members are not eligible to vote for Community seats.

Members who are eligible to run for the EC may nominate themselves for either a Community seat or an Elected seat.

We have our agreement. It may be tweaked as we go forward, but no need to keep this issue open.

Note also, per issue #80, that we've changed the name to Associate.
