Standards/GitHub IPR Organization: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 08:16, 10 June 2022

The mozilla-standards GitHub organization exists for interactions between Mozilla and standards bodies that use GitHub organizations to track organization-wide IPR commitments.

Many standards organizations require contributors to make intellectual property rights (IPR) commitments regarding copyrights and patents. These generally need to be made by the company the contributor works for. So this organization is designed to contain people who are paid to work for Mozilla, so that standards development organizations that use GitHub organizations can track who Mozilla's IPR commitment applies to.

Ask hsivonen, mt, or tantek to be added. This might become more automated in the future.

Standards organizations that currently use this:

WHATWG (website: https://whatwg.org/)

Please note that you must make your membership public for this to work. This can be done in the UI for the organization.
