The point
though, is that
some sort of precise *identity* needs to attach to members.
At the moment this is expected to be by nominated representative to
the management board. If someone is representing a project publically
and they shouldn't be, then I think that would be fairly obvious.
I think "project" is too vague and
amorphous a term.
I guess libre software projects are amorphous. They aren't
individuals, or companies, or organisations in the traditional sense.
I'd strongly recommend holding off
the *legal* establishment of any entity until a broader consensus
exists.
Quite right. linuxaudio.org has no legal status for the time being.
The problem is, in my eyes the term 'linuxaudio' represents linux audio
developers, linux audio users, linux audio projects.
Consortium.linuxaudio.org would then be representing a consortium.
or foundation.linuxaduio.org for that matter.
