+ FreeBSD Project Associate
+
+ An Associate is an individual who has made a notable contribution
+ to the FreeBSD project. That may be in the form of new code,
+ documentation, or patches to existing code and documentation
+ committed through a currently valid Committer, or in other ways
+ that the Core Team designates, including community management and
+ advocacy. Associates do not have any voting rights or
+ responsibilities to the project other than to ensure their
+ contributed material adheres to the project's standards and
+ practices, that the work is original to the author and is made
+ available under the standard, FreeBSD license.
+
+ Associates receive:
+
+
+ - an @freebsd.org email address which also gives them regular
+ Bugzilla and Phabricator logins
+ - permission to assign bugs to themselves in bugzilla
+ - access to freefall and the universe build machines
+ - access to the test clusters
+ - the right to attend developer summits
+ - access to the developers@ mailing list
+
+
+
Associates MUST create SSH and PGP keys in exactly the way that
+ a committer would to gain access to project resources.
+
+ Associates are bound by the Code of Conduct of the FreeBSD Project.
+
+ Associate status is conferred by a ballot of Core members, or
+ by other groups that Core may designate such as Portmgr or Doceng.
+ Any FreeBSD committer or associate may propose candidates for
+ associate status.
+
+ Core, or groups that core may designate, that award associate
+ status, should review that status at least once annually and
+ retire inactive accounts. There is no minimum level of
+ contribution required, Core and the designated teams may use their
+ own discretion.
+
+
+
+ FAQ:
+
+
+ - Assigning a buddy (or group of buddies) to the
+ associate.
+ - No. Associates will be assigned a mentor when they reach a
+ level to upgrade from Associate to Committer. Until that time,
+ they can use the mailing lists and the phabricator review
+ groups.
+ - Do committers who have given up their commit bits
+ effectively become associates?
+ - No, they become Alumni.
+ - How does this affect the existing 3rd Party Developer
+ status?
+ - Existing 3rd party developers will be promoted to
+ Associates.
