The exception to this is trademarks-related costs, which we are no longer able to acquire as a pro bono service. We need, therefore, to develop a strategy and budget for this expense. * In 2017, we made good progress getting better definition on practical and legal aspects of the sponsorship program. * We considered a proposal in 2017 to form a revenue-generating joint venture, managed via a separate legal entity. * The (finance) plan, as currently formulated also does not include the increments in funding suggested above for Community Development, nor does it separate a legal defense reserve. > Develop strategy & budget for next 5 years - Legal PMC > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: LEGAL-422 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-422 > Project: Legal Discuss > Issue Type: Task > Reporter: Henri Yandell > Priority: Major > > From 5 year plan: https://www.apache.org/board/plan.html > ASF Services - Legal > The ASF is fortunate to have pro bono legal counsel available that meets most of our legal advice and representation needs.
