Governance - eZ Publish Community Project

• Feedback received on Governance• Add one recruitment criterion : • familiarity with devs in the eZ Ecosystem

• We need to have members from all around the world and avoid a europe-centric Board

• A seat should be reserved to a non-technical profile• Have 7 members instead of 6 to lead to decisions or

enforce majority as in more than 50,01%• Licensing

Participation - eZ Publish Community Project

• Insight on the Participation model• Will be decided by the Board•

“The eZ Community, Now & later”
