How to join the legal committee?

Hey Guys,

I'm interested in joining the legal committee. I'm not a lawyer, but
I have taken an Open Source Legal class from Kirkland and Ellis for
3 credits in the state of California; but more importantly I know a
ton about our software projects; and want to lend my time towards helping
them as part of the team.

I'm subscribed to this list and generally chime in when I have something
of worth to contribute. If that's "enough" feel free to tell me that
I don't need to be on the committee and we'll proceed. However if it
wouldn't hurt for me to join the committee officially I'm putting it
out there.

Thanks guys.

Cheers,
Chris

Hi Daniel,

Great question -- to me committee membership means that I will focus
more of my volunteer efforts here than otherwise. Nothing more, really.
There may be some other meaning..but that's what it means to me.

CHeers,
Chris

What is the practical effect of being a member of the committee?  How is
it practically different from subscribing to legal-internal@ and chiming
in when having input?

As to the question posed by the subject line, unless we see objections
here, copy and tweak resolution 7C from last year's June board minutes
[1] to this week's board agenda.
