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> + + +<h2>How To Become A Consortium Member</h2> + +<p> +Membership in the SQLite Consortium is via +contract with <a href="https://www.hwaci.com/">Hipp, Wyrick & Company, Inc.</a>. +Send email to <a href="mailto:drh@sqlite.org">drh@sqlite.org</a> or phone ++1.704.948.4565 during US east-coast business hours +for additional information. +</p> + + + +</body></html> +<p align="center"><small><i>This page last modified on <a href="https://sqlite.org/docsrc/honeypot" id="mtimelink" data-href="https://sqlite.org/docsrc/finfo/pages/consortium.in?m=ad2c94214c">2022-01-08 05:02:57</a> UTC </small></i></p> + |
