| 158 | + <div class="paragraph"> |
| 159 | + <p>Just like other projects in the ecosystem around us (WildFly, SmallRye, RESTEasy, Undertow, …​), Weld too has been looking for a friendly vendor-neutral place it could inhabit - a software foundation.<br> |
| 160 | + It is our hope that by joining a foundation we can make Weld more open, expand the community, improve transparency and encourage participation from contributors coming from all over the software landscape.</p> |

| 163 | + <h3 id="_things_to_keep_in_mind">Things to Keep in Mind</h3> |
| 164 | + <div class="paragraph"> |
| 165 | + <p>When choosing a foundation to join, there are several importants things to consider:</p> |
| 166 | + </div> |
| 167 | + <div class="ulist"> |
| 168 | + <ul> |
| 169 | + <li> |
| 170 | + <p>Ability to use the tooling we currently have to minimize the impact of the move. For instance, we still use JIRA for issues.</p> |
| 171 | + </li> |
| 172 | + <li> |
| 173 | + <p>Maintain the ability to perform quick release when needed and at flexible intervals.</p> |
| 174 | + </li> |
| 175 | + <li> |
| 176 | + <p>As a project, retain independence in decision-making. I.e. if possible do not fall under foundation imposed restrictions and rules.</p> |
| 177 | + </li> |
| 178 | + </ul> |
| 179 | + </div> |
| 180 | + </div> |
| 181 | + <div class="sect2"> |
| 182 | + <h3 id="_what_does_the_move_entail">What Does the Move Entail?</h3> |
| 183 | + <div class="paragraph"> |
| 184 | + <p>Red Hat has always been supportive of open source and collaboration in vendor-neutral projects and this is still the case; Red Hat bussiness leaders are fully supportive of this move.<br> |
| 185 | + Furthermore, we, as in the Weld team, aim to keep working on the project and supporting it just like we did up until now.</p> |
| 186 | + </div> |
| 187 | + </div> |
| 188 | + <div class="sect2"> |
| 189 | + <h3 id="_current_status">Current Status</h3> |
| 190 | + <div class="paragraph"> |
| 191 | + <p>At the moment we are eyeing the option to move along with <a href="https://www.commonhaus.org/activity/259.html">WildFly under the Commonhaus Foundation</a>.<br></p> |
| 192 | + </div> |
| 193 | + </div> |
| 194 | + <div class="sect2"> |
| 195 | + <h3 id="_community_feedback">Community Feedback</h3> |
| 196 | + <div class="paragraph"> |
| 197 | + <p>We’d love to hear your thoughts on this so don’t hesitate to speak through the mailing list or via a discussion topic directly in the GitHub repository.</p> |
