I am inviting anyone who has any questions to ask them.

I see that you plan

        * An agressive increase in the number and quality of associate projects

Question is: how are you planning to increase the _quality_ of associate
projects?  And how do you measure quality in the first place?

I plan on actively recruiting new projects. There are many, many FOSS projects out there that could use SPI services, that have no idea who we are.

Defining a quality project is a bit difficult, it is also fairly biased on my part. In my mind a quality project has been shown to have members that participate in the FOSS community in general, have an open forum for discussion, and show a willingness to participate in other communities.

PostgreSQL (obviously) is one idea of a quality community. It has a mostly proactive community that is driven to not only create better software but participates in the advocacy of FOSS in general. PostgreSQL also makes it a point to participate in external events to help spread the gospel :)


Sincerely,


Joshua D. Drake
