The Open Source Initiative’s corporate status is suspended

“What does the Open Source Initiative have to say about it?

“We asked OSI president, Michael Tiemann, and general counsel,
Mark Radcliffe, a number of questions related to the suspension. We
received the following response from Michael:

““Like many non profits that are staffed by volunteers we
have not always gotten our paperwork into the state on time. We
have been working with our counsel and accountants to satisfy the
state’s requirements for several months, but have not been
able to make the submissions as swiftly as the state wanted.
Consequently, they have suspended our corporate status. We are
working hard to satisfy their requirements and anticipate that we
will be able to do so in the near term. Since OSI does not conduct
business in a conventional manner, i.e. we are not selling
products, we believe that the suspension will have a minimal effect
on our mission.”
