[Discussion] Consortium Bylaws Draft Available!

[Matt Jonkman]

We're happy to announce with the assistance of the Software Freedom Law
Center (http://www.softwarefreedom.org/) a draft version of the bylaws
for the OISF. This draft is open for public comment. All comments and
questions are encouraged to be made publicly on the OISF Mailing lists,
but may also be made privately to team at openinfosecfoundation.org.

We welcome all ideas and comment, the charter we intend to adopt must
govern this organization for years to come allowing it to both produce
effective public products and grow to encompass new ideas and projects.

The text of this draft is available here:

http://www.openinformationsecurityfoundation.org/bylaws_draft_v0.1.txt

Please take the time to read and comment. Watch for the discussion on
this OISF mailing list Once the ideas and process is agreed upon by the
community in general we'll generate the actual legal documentation and
commit that to record.

Our primary funding is nearly available, and we're set to start major
development in the next few weeks. We'll be scheduling an initial
planning meeting in the Washington DC area in the next 2 weeks.
Attendance will be open to the public, we encourage you to attend!

The OISF Team
