+ Ceph Foundation
+=================

+The Ceph Foundation exists to enable industry members to collaborate

+investments in the Ceph ecosystem.
+
+The Ceph Foundation is organized as a directed fund under the Linux
+Foundation. Premier and General Member organizations contribute a
+yearly fee to become members. Associate members are educational
+institutions or government organizations and are invited to join at no
+cost.
