  • Size: Large

Summary

  1. Set membership dues for the Co-op Cloud Federation at EUR 10/month, to be reviewed in 6 months’ time, in October 2023.
  2. Approval of new members requires a Large decision
  3. Groups who had a member attend the first federation meeting are all founding members (are already in the federation, do not require a decision to be added)

Details

Obviously this plan is not long-term financially sustainable. The idea is to use Autonomic’s remaining funds for the federation to collectivise the process of working this out over the next few months.

Dues

Members are required to make a minimum monthly EUR 10 (or EUR 60/year) donation through Open Collective. Members who are able are encouraged to donate more. Individuals/groups wanting to join Co-op Cloud who aren’t able to make a financial contribution may request a solidarity free membership.

Membership

To join the federation an existing member must create a large decision to approve of the new member (paid or solidarity). All collectives who attended the first federation meeting are already granted membership and are asked to setup recurring donations as soon as possible.
