Hi Season of Docs folks,
I have a few questions from an organization's perspective, and will ask in
separate email threads so answers are easier to track.

Can an open source project, which is not legally incorporated, apply for a
Season of Docs grant?
In particular, I’m wondering about:
https://developers.google.com/season-of-docs/terms/organization-terms which
states:
*“If you are accepting on behalf of your open source organization, you
represent and warrant that (i) you have full legal authority to bind your
organization to these terms and conditions”*
I'm asking:
1. On behalf of an open source community of volunteers. We have established
open source governance processes, with a project steering committee, but no
legal standing.
2. On behalf of a committee within an incorporated open source foundation,
where I'm expecting to be able to get the blessing of foundation's board.
