Creating a Group of Advisors

Open Source Matters (OSM), is the non-profit organization that provides the Joomla project with financial and legal support.

It's a serious responsibility and one that is currently held by 14 board members who have long and successful track records as participants in the Joomla community.

We are always looking to improve and follow best practices for organizations like OSM. We recognize that the board would benefit from a widened scope of experience with other Open Source and non-profit projects.

To this end, we’re planning to create a group of advisors. The aim of this group is to provide:

• Advice based on their experience and success in the Open Source and business world.
• Connections to people who can help the Joomla project.
• A fresh, outsider's view on Joomla and its challenges.
