## Fair Source

This is the repo for [fair.io](https://fair.io/).

### Governance and Process

Fair Source is just getting started, so our governance and process are fairly

lightweight. [Chad Whitacre](https://github.com/chadwhitacre) (Sentry) and

[Zeke Gabrielse](https://github.com/ezekg) (Keygen) are handling new

[company](https://github.com/fairsource/fair.io/issues/new?template=company.yaml)

and

[license](https://github.com/fairsource/fair.io/issues/new?template=license.yaml)

submissions.

For **companies**, we are looking for a) a blog post announcement about b) a

software product using a [Fair Source license](https://fair.io/licenses/). If

you're using BUSL we will need to review your license more closely since BUSL

can have highly variable implementations.

For **licenses**, we're still working out specifics but we intend to be fairly

stringent in order to avoid license proliferation. Of course your license must

meet the [Fair Source Definition](https://fair.io/about/). It must also not put

an undue burden on the user to monitor their compliance with your license (any

compliance checks should be built into your software itself). It should also be

adopted at more than one company, at least.
