|  |   <h1>Membership Policy for the GNOME Foundation</h1> | ||||||
|  | 
 | ||||||
|  |   <h3>Who is eligible for membership in the GNOME Foundation?</h3> | ||||||
|  | 
 | ||||||
|  |   <p> | ||||||
|  |    Per the GNOME Foundation's charter, any contributor to GNOME is | ||||||
|  |    eligible for membership.  Although it is difficult to specify a | ||||||
|  |    precise definition, a contributor generally must have contributed to a | ||||||
|  |    non-trivial improvement of the GNOME Project.  Contributions may be | ||||||
|  |    code, documentation, translations, maintenance of project-wide | ||||||
|  |    resources, or other non-trivial activities which benefit the GNOME | ||||||
|  |    Project.  While large amounts of advocacy or bug reporting may qualify | ||||||
|  |    one as a member, such contributions must be significantly above the | ||||||
|  |    level expected of an ordinary user.  Membership eligibility is an | ||||||
|  |    individual determination: while contributions made in the course of | ||||||
|  |    employment will be considered, they will generally be ascribed to the | ||||||
|  |    individuals involved, rather than accruing to all employees of a | ||||||
|  |    "contributing" corporation.  As noted above, these guidelines are not | ||||||
|  |    meant to define precise objective criteria: ultimately, an | ||||||
|  |    individual's membership eligibility will be determined on a | ||||||
|  |    case-by-case basis, in the sound discretion of the Membership | ||||||
|  |    Committee and the Board of Directors. | ||||||
|  |   </p> | ||||||
|  | 
 | ||||||
|  |   <h3>How can I apply for membership in the GNOME Foundation?</h3> | ||||||
|  | 
 | ||||||
|  |   <p> | ||||||
|  |    To apply for membership, please complete the form available at <a | ||||||
|  |    href="http://foundation.gnome.org/membership-form.html"> | ||||||
|  |    http://foundation.gnome.org/membership-form.html</a>. | ||||||
|  |    Please note that applications for membership must include sufficient | ||||||
|  |    information to allow the Membership Committee to verify the | ||||||
|  |    applicants' eligibility; applications which include inaccurate or | ||||||
|  |    insufficient information may be rejected at the committee's | ||||||
|  |    discretion. | ||||||
|  |   </p> | ||||||
|  | 
 | ||||||
|  |   <h3>My application was rejected; what can I do?</h3> | ||||||
|  | 
 | ||||||
|  |   <p> | ||||||
|  |    If you have questions as to why your application was rejected, | ||||||
|  |    please contact the Membership Committee by electronic mail to <a | ||||||
|  |    href="mailto:membership@gnome.org">membership@gnome.org</a>; you may | ||||||
|  |    be able to provide additional information which will lead to the | ||||||
|  |    approval of your application.  If you are still dissatisfied with the | ||||||
|  |    Membership Committee's determination, you may appeal the decision to | ||||||
|  |    the Board of Directors by e-mailing <a | ||||||
|  |    href="mailto:board@gnome.org">board@gnome.org</a>. | ||||||
|  |   </p> | ||||||
|  | 
 | ||||||
|  |   <h3>Renewing your membership</h3> | ||||||
|  | 
 | ||||||
|  |   <p> | ||||||
|  |    <b>Note: Complete renewal information will be made available before | ||||||
|  |    the first memberships expire.</b> | ||||||
|  |   </p> | ||||||
|  | 
 | ||||||
|  |   <p> | ||||||
|  |    Membership in the GNOME Foundation ordinarily lasts for two years. | ||||||
|  |    A reasonable period of time before your membership expires, you will | ||||||
|  |    be contacted by the Membership Committee with a request that you file | ||||||
|  |    a renewal application, available at [URL will be inserted here when | ||||||
|  |    available].  Renewal applications will be reviewed according to the | ||||||
|  |    same standards outlined above for an initial membership, and must | ||||||
|  |    generally be supported by recent or ongoing contributions to GNOME. | ||||||
|  |    If you do not file a valid renewal application by the specified | ||||||
|  |    deadline, your membership will terminate; former members may, of | ||||||
|  |    course, file a new application for membership at a later date, again | ||||||
|  |    provided it is supported by recent or ongoing contributions. | ||||||
