to an active OSM contributor, subject to an introduction by an
existing active member and approval by the board. <br>

<div class="moz-cite-prefix">b) there will be an associate
("adherent") non-voting membership for those who do not meet the
above criteria.</div>
<p>It excludes legal minors, but any adult is unconditionally
eligible for at least one of the two classes of member. It seems
quite similar to OSMF. I regard it as fitting the criterion for
easy mass membership.<br>

<p>You must be reading a different document than I am. The major
problem with the application is that their AoAs don't allow for
this, instead it uses a HoT like model with some window
dressing.<br>
</p>
<p>I'm actually surprised that the LCCWG allowed the application
to move forward to this stage without having the obvious issue
addressed.<br>

<p>Hi all,</p>
<p><br>
You may be aware that <b>Geolibres</b> has applied to
become an official Local Chapter of the OpenStreetMap
Foundation. As part of the application process, we would
like to ask you, <b> the OSMF membership</b> how you feel
about this. Do you support this application? Do you have
any questions, comments or concerns?</p>
<p> You can find all the information about this Local
Chapter application on the OSMF website: <a

We will close this round of discussion two weeks from now
(May 4th +14 days).<br>
You can reply here or send a message to board at <a
