+<h1 align=center>The SQLite Consortium</h1>
+
+<p>
+The SQLite Consortium is a membership association dedicated to
+insuring the continuing vitality and independence of SQLite.
+SQLite is high-quality, public domain software. The goal of
+the SQLite Consortium is to make sure it stays that way.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+Consortium members contribute funding to support the ongoing
+development and maintenance of SQLite and in return receive
+enterprise-level technical support and legal assurances that
+SQLite will remain independent and open-source. Consortium
+members have direct access to
+the SQLite developers and receive priority consideration for
+any bug fixes or feature requests. However, technical control
+and direction of SQLite remains with the SQLite architect and
+developers. An important goal of the SQLite Consortium, after
+all, is to make sure that SQLite does not fall under the governance
+of any single company but remains independent and fully under the
+control of the SQLite developers.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+Companies that use SQLite as a critical component in their
+products or infrastructure may want to consider becoming
+SQLite Consortium Members as inexpensive insurance
+in the future vitality and independence of SQLite. The SQLite Consortium
+membership fee is a fraction of the cost of devoting internal
+staff to supporting the SQLite code base. Benefits of
+membership include:
+</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li><p>
+Consortium members have the guaranteed, undivided attention of the SQLite
+developers for 23 staff-days per year and for as much additional time
+above and beyond that amount that the core developers have available.
+There are no arbitrary limits on contact time.
+The consortium will never be over-subscribed. New SQLite developers
+will be recruited and trained as necessary to cover the 23 day/year
+support commitment.
+</p></li>
+
+<li><p>
+Consortium members can call any developer at any time, day or
+night, and expect to get their full and immediate attention.
+Consortium members have access to the home telephone numbers
+and cellphone numbers and work schedules of the core developers
+so that the developers can be tracked down quickly in a crisis.
+</p></li>
+
+<li><p>
+The SQLite developers are eager and happy to write new code
+or debug existing code for consortium members.
+Consortium members can request and expect to receive significant
+new enhancements to the public SQLite code base. Consortium
+members can also request their own private, proprietary extensions
+and enhancements.
+</p></li>
+
+<li><p>
+Consortium members can receive support for any
+version of SQLite no matter how old.
+Bug fixes will be back ported to older versions of SQLite upon
+request.
+</p></li>
+
+<li><p>
+Consortium members can receive private
+email and/or telephone notifications and briefings covering
+new bugs or recently added features.
+The core developers are constantly watching out for the
+interests of consortium members and will attempt to protect
+those interests in every way possible and alert members
+when their interests are threatened in any way.
+</p></li>
+
+<li><p>
+The SQLite developers will set up customized regression tests
+to fully and completely test SQLite as configured by consortium
+members. Normally, only the standard SQLite configuration is fully
+tested at each release. Consortium members that use a non-standard
+configuration can request that their configuration be tested to the
+same level of detail.
+</p></li>
+
+<li><p>
+Support requests are accepted from any employee or contractor working
+for a consortium member.
+Support is not limited to a single development
+team as it is with a maintenance subscription or technical support
+agreement.
+</p></li>
+
+<li><p>
+Support requests, comments, and suggestions for future
+changes to SQLite coming from consortium members take priority
+over requests from all other sources.
+Consortium members go to the front of the line.
+</p></li>
+
+<li><p>
+We will be happy to
+<a href="index.html#consortium_members">recognize consortium members</a>
+ on the SQLite website
+with a logo and/or a brief acknowledgement of their contribution to the
+project. This is an opportunity for companies to build good will by
+demonstrating that they are giving back to the community. Or, members
+can remain anonymous.
+</p></li>
+
+</ul>
