Re: [osgi-wg] Introduction / Suggestion to clarify "Vision and Scope" / Membership description

And to add to what BJ said, in the
Eclipse world there is a model whereby someone who wishes to
contribute to a specification can become an individual
contributor.
We don't have anything like an
individual supporter program per se but one could be
developed if there is sufficient interest.

OSGi Supporters are not really members, per se,
of the OSGi Alliance. It was just a means of expressing
support for the OSGi Alliance's activities.
And there is no transferring of membership from
the OSGi Alliance to the OSGi Working Group in any case.
Entities wishing to participate in the OSGi Working Group will
need to join both the Eclipse Foundation and then the OSGi
Working Group. To participate in OSGi specification
development in the OSGi Working Group, one must execute the
participation agreement for the OSGi Working Group. Like other
working groups at Eclipse doing specification development, the
participation agreement puts the necessary IP flows in place
to ensure the specifications are in good IP health.

Hi Ray,
thanks for giving details on that, Dan also has kindly
forwarded me a
link [1] that also covers this, it seems I have missed
that before :-\
But one thing that came into my mind: Are there any plans
to transfer
OSgi Alliance member-ships (as I'm already listed as an
OSGi Supporter
there) or should one reapply for joining in some way?
That's not
completely clear to me as I haven't found any information
if such thing
as "Supporter" will exits.
