Creating fair governance models for open-source projects is noteasy; defining criteria for participants to receive membership andvoting rights is a particularly thorny problem for projects that haveelections for representative bodies. The FedoraCouncil, the project's top-level governance body, is wrestlingwith that conundrum now. This was triggered by a Fedora special-interestgroup (SIG) granting temporary membership to at least one person for thesole purpose of allowing them to vote in the most recent FedoraEngineering Steering Council (FESCo) election. That opened a large canof worms about what it means to be a contributor and how contributorscan be identified for voting purposes.
