I've been discussing with Tom Marble the feasibility of putting
Clojars under the umbrella of the Software Freedom Conservancy, since
it has an OSS codebase (which is a requirement for the SFC, and
something that is lacking from the CCO proposal, since moving Clojure
itself under the SFC isn't an o
This initiative seems overdue by a couple years. I would like to offer some
non-trivial portion of my time. Is there anywhere people could donate to
ensure this becomes a valuable and positive community reality?

I don't think we have any official position on it, but I can respond to
various items that have been mentioned above in the thread:

This is a great initiative. Would love to see an "official" community
organisation.
Some things I think are particularly important on the content side:
a) Maintain and improve the clojure.org website as the "front page" for the
community
b) Produce "official" user guides and documentation for Cl
Re gsoc, last year Cognitect was a receiving organization for the funds and
distributed them to students for travel to Clojure conferences. This incurs
some cost on Cognitect for the accounting effort but overall seemed worth it.
We also offer free tickets to all gsoc students for any Clojure co
I did ask Peter Norvig to show support for Clojure with simple programs

and standardising common patterns and anti-patterns on various levels –

toward helping newcomers and spreading good practices.

This is a awesome idea!
In my opinion, this organization would attract the maximum number of people
if its mission is centred on Knowledge Management:
1. Wiki-based Clojure documentation, such as clojuredocs.org, containing
the "official" documentation, but constantly improved by the commun
