[SAC] SAC hosting for non OSGeo projects

[Frank Warmerdam]

Howard,

On January 11th the board revised the procedure for SAC to host non
OSGeo projects (like Fusion).  The revised procedure is that after
SAC has approved the hosting by motion (with a volunteer), the board
should be notified.  Once at least five board members have indicated
agreement with the plan (by +1'ing by email) the effort can proceed.

This is intended to streamline things from the current need to wait for a
board meeting. Note that this is *not* a motion to the board since such a
thing require unanimous agreement if done by email.  Instead this is a
distinct mechanism put into place by the board by motion.

I'd appreciate it if you could update any SAC document on this process.

Best regards,
--
