Good morning Cristina,

Can you clarify what do you mean by "status"?

I called it "badges", but of course I mean "roles". Badges -- are signs of
the role. Sample: a bee-photographer image near your name on the website.

>> - OOTB edition development
>> - supporting Alfresco instances for testing and demo purposes

>> - support marketing channels: publishing news about new add-ons and

>>
>> Also a point about voting:
>>
>> All important decisions should be made by members of Order. Author of the

>>
>> We can form a first "petition" from the points above after edits from
>> your side. If you like the idea, then we may summarize a list of categories
>> and first members of these categories, write these points in more clear and
>> formal English language, publish them on the websites as our structure and
>> governance roles.
>>
>> If I missed something, please add more points to the proposed petition :)
>> I created an #ootb channel in IRC to discuss points quicker. Or should we
>> create a hangout in Google for it? I believe we can form the final text
>> this week and start voting on Monday.

>> Sincerely yours,
