Mike,
Well, times are changing. I recently saw an institution where the ethics committee was being hijacked and that definitely concerned me.
Kind regards,
Peter Kriens

Matthew (and Peter)
Those words have been in our committer agreements since 2004. In that time we have had a few thousand committers and several hundred member companies sign up to those terms. This is the first time we have ever had a question about it. I think that speaks for itself.
Thanks.
I am asked to sign a new committers agreement like I guess all of us.
I read the agreement and it contains this section that worries me:
<208456DC-D9E2-4351-81E2-2F53BB65CAD5.png>
This is basically an open ended agreement, to be amended by the foundation anytime. Are there more committers worried about such an agreement or am I overly cautious?
Kind regards,
Peter Kriens
