Fist take my apologies that the email has not beed sent out yet.
For a smooth membership invitation there need to be some changes
to the mailinglists and aliases. It was a real busy week for Ihsan
and he just hasn't time to do so. When this is finished hopefully
this weekend the email will go out.

Of course you are :-)

There are two reasons for this: One was lack of time as we
felt it was more important to focus on a unified understanding
of what the association should look like. The other was that it
was not intended to decide on these things as the founding
members don't "just decide" and that's it - the outcoming
of these things will be after a hopefully lively discussions
on the members list after all of you have been invited.
The goal of the meeting was not the participants to become
a new ruling class, but to open up for a more democratic
process focused on the needs of active maintainers.


Best regards
