A proposal for the group to consider.  This is what I was trying to get
at in the Boston Town Hall meeting a couple of months ago.

https://osi.xwiki.com/bin/Main/Projects/beyond-licensing/FOMM+Documentation+Proposal/

Providing a framework to better quantify and measure open source
licenses is critical - but that's done.  The *way* that people and
companies work together in FOSS projects today is what's important now.

Whether we call it governance or "organizational models" or whatever:
OSI could be the place that provides the basic vocabulary and structure
for the world to use to describe the common FOSS project models today.

Thanks, talk to everyone tomorrow!
