Dear Community,

We are getting ready for our elections in 2013. If you are not a member
of the foundation and would like to be able to vote you will need to be
a member by the recording date. We are shooting for our next scheduled
meeting on May 19.

Full members are admitted by petitioning the trustees for membership,
providing verifiable evidence of their contribution to Gentoo.

Active Gentoo developers who are not members of the Foundation may
apply for membership. Any developer applying for membership in the
Foundation will become a member of the Foundation immediately after the
next Trustee meeting following the application unless an absolute
majority of the trustees (currently 3 out of 5) oppose membership for
the developer at this meeting.

Applicants who are not Gentoo developers need to cite verifiable
evidence of contributing to Gentoo or to the stated aims of the Gentoo
Foundation Inc.

Examples of contributing include but are not limited to, arch testing,
bugzilla, Gentoo forums, working with existing developers.
Contributions will be verified. The decision of the trustees is final.

Monetary contributions will be discounted - Gentoo Foundation
membership cannot be bought.

You can check to see if you are a current Member.[1]

If you would like to become a member before the next election please 
send an email to trustees@gentoo.org and I will add you to the May 19 
meeting agenda.[2]
