+# The Legal Affairs Committee #
+
+The Legal Affairs Committee is responsible for establishing and managing
+legal policies based on the advice of legal counsel and the interests of
+the Foundation.
+
+The committee was established in March 2007 with the purpose
+to distribute the legal affairs workload to a coordinated group of ASF
+members, to assign responsibility for legal policy deliberation and
+decision making to the same group under the supervision of the board, and
+to provide a structured means of participation and familiarization for
+those interested in taking over the Legal VP job one day.
+
+It reports to the board each month, here are the 
+[reports to date](https://whimsy.apache.org/board/minutes/Legal_Affairs.html).
+
+
+## Contacting the Legal Affairs Committee ## {#communications}
+
+Questions for the Legal Affairs Committee should be raised on 
+[LEGAL JIRA space](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL).
+
+Discussions are held on the public 
+[legal-discuss](http://www.apache.org/foundation/mailinglists.html#foundation-legal)
+mailing list. See the [legal-discuss
+archives](http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/www-legal-discuss/) 
+for previous discussions. 
+
+## Historical and background documents ## {#background-links}
+
+Two historical documents providing guidance on the previous Legal VP philosophies are:
+
+-  Sam Ruby's [Ramblings of an ASF VP of Legal Affairs](/legal/ramblings.html) 
+
+-  Cliff Schmidt's [Draft (and out of date) Third-Party Licensing
+Policy](https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/infrastructure/site/trunk/archive/legal/3party.mdtext). 
+While never enacted, this draft provided much guidance for subsequent third party licensing answers.
