I added some content to the June newsletter. It could use some attention.

So let's look at this from the point of view of a small PMC here, say
any of those that have less than 10 committers or so still around
(possibly even with only 3 active PMC members). I don't see how asking
an already overburdened project to bootstrap their own ability to work
on the project fullti
Worth checking.
Seems to be possible for other non-profits with the same regime (see the
list of the hosts there).
I think the big difference here is not that the ASF points to
OpenCollective, but that Open Collective points to ASF as the "host" and
the PMC initiatives point to ASF as "host" when
Hi Jarek,
But I still can't believe this could be legal for the ASF to do. I would love
it to be ok, but right now it's even problematic to even have links to
commercial offerings regarding Apache projects, because that would endanger our
non-profit status. I just can't believe something like t
And a comment - if, and only if ASF could become the Fiscal Host for all
those initiatives and it would be legal from the point of view of the
bylaws of the Foundation, this concern of yours Chris should be
automatically handled:

The best is to show an example here.
This is the initiative I recently supported

as being one of these Fiscal Hosts. But in general, it does sound like they
could be something usable, just not using the ASF as Fiscal Host.
I am not sure to be honest. From at least looking at the description of

Hi Roman and Jarek,
well the reason I was proposing something new was that I did try to participate
with some of the existing initiatives like Tidelift, but they showed a great
amount of disinterest. It seems as if only the projects big enough are
considered worthy of being supported. The entit

Roman, welcome to the party!
I think the scope of the risk (in terms of “what”) is fairly well understood.
Did you also estimate the probability of the risks? (i.e. likelihood?)
Do you mind sharing what the results were of the previous assessment?

Very good points Roman. I think it's great to think about it with the
building business "mindset" - this is the only way it can actually succeed.

Chris, thanks for sort of reviving the old thread I had before the
war: I'm slowly coming back to my more regular Open Source life from
all the craziness of the past two months. Because of that, there's not
much to report back -- but I will share a few points and comment on a
few of yours. Hope thi
