Re: Constitution - formal proposal (v0.5.1)



>From the proposed constitution (v0.5):

 9. Software in the Public Interest                                            
                                                                         
   SPI and Debian are separate organisations who share some goals. Debian
   is grateful for the legal support framework offered by SPI. Debian's
                                                               ^^^^^^^^
   developers are currently members of SPI by virtue of their status as
   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
   developers. 
   ^^^^^^^^^^^

Is SPI a membership organization?  If not, the last sentence above makes no
sense.  If so, how can Debian decide who gets to be a member?  I think that
sentence should be deleted.  If it is desired that Debian developers be SPI
members a statement to that effect belongs in SPI's bylaws, not in Debian's
constitution.
