It seems like silence = consensus (or that the people who might care more are not on this list). My suggestion is to go to the next stage, start drafting a membership agreement and identify potential members to recruit. Will the Linux Foundation take point on recruiting members, or does that fall to the community too? Thanks, Dave. On 02/05/2016 12:20 PM, Bob Monkman wrote: > Right.
