The CLA, did everybody sign it and is it still appropriate

Diaspora Inc has - as final act of handing over the project to the community - to publish a recall of that CLA, remove it from the complete source and put a new FOSS license we agree on.
It is simply a question of honor and self-evident.

The fundament - for further community-made decisions within the processes we define - I want it to be clear.

I think that the Diaspora Foundation (or whatever) would need to be formed before this could be resolved? (I Am Not A Lawyer, however.)

Founding a proper legal foundation is serious stuff - I'd say we need to get things really going first :) Let's not get tied down in nitty bitty legal stuff.

(not saying the CLA is good as it is)

So there is no such NGO called Diaspora Foundation yet? (somehow I thought it would exist). The website redirects to the project site / JD blog so I assume it does not?!

If there are some people who like to do it, that would be great. But not to overemphasize it in the sense as Jason said is a good idea.

Im my town we are these days also in the process of founding a NGO.

without changing cla, there will no future be, like adri described

I am not sure if there is any organization with the name Diaspora Foundation, but it is not very probable. Why should it be both a Diaspora Inc. and a Diaspora Foundation?
As I understand it Diaspora Inc. has to legally be transformed from a company to a foundation. Or "die" (excuse me for using such a dramatic word) and rise again as the Diaspora Foundation. Let’s not forget that Diaspora is also a trademark. I do not see the community resolving this without direct involvement from the owners of Diaspora Inc.

Altruism, no, Diaspora, Inc is a company owned by people. It is totally separate and what those guys do there is not up to anyone else (any more after the open governance transition plans). Why would they need close shop for a foundation to be set up? :)

Diaspora is a trademark of Diaspora Inc (correct me if I am wrong). In the case they have no problem with another organization using the Diaspora brand I guess that would be an alternative. Is that a good idea both a company and a foundation with the same name?
