Legal incorporation is not a requirement for participation in the Season of<br>
Docs program.<br>
<br>
If you apply as a representative of your project or organization, we<br>
require that you have the permission of that organization (however it<br>
grants that permission, whether by a board motion, a vote of the project<br>
steering committee, etc.) to represent the organization.<br>
<br>
We assume you have that permission if you submit an application on behalf<br>
of an organization.<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
<br>
Erin<br>
