|   <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. | ||||
