# Resolution 2024-10-14.jln.1: Removing Gallery as an associated project

This resolution was adopted by the Board of Directors of SPI at their
meeting of [October 14, 2024](/meetings/minutes/2024/2024-10-14/).

WHEREAS

1. Gallery is currently an SPI associated project.

2. The Gallery project, an open source photo sharing web application, has
been defunct for many years and is no longer under active development.

3. The Gallery project liaison has proposed that it should be removed
from the list of active SPI projects.

THE SPI BOARD RESOLVES THAT

1. Gallery is removed from the list of SPI associated projects.

2. SPI will no longer actively seek donations on behalf of Gallery.

3. SPI will endeavor in good faith to identify and contact the latest
donors to the Gallery project whose donations were not used, to inquire
if they wish to repurpose earmarked donations or have them returned.
Donors claiming refunds may be required to fill Form 1040X and submit
the amendment to the IRS.

4. If the earmarking of the remaining assets was done in error, the
earmark will be rectified and the money will be deposited in SPI
General Fund.

5. This is subject to any undischarged obligations SPI may have with
respect to Gallery. We are not aware of any such undischarged
obligations. We ask anyone who is aware of any to notify us within 30
days of this resolution.

# Resolution 2024-11-11.js.1: Rigs of Rods as an associated project

WHEREAS

1. Rigs of Rods is a substantial and significant free/libre open
source software project providing a vehicle simulator that uses
soft-body physics to simulate the motion, destruction, and
deformation of vehicles.

2. The Rigs of Rods project would like SPI's support and assistance,
including accepting donations, holding funds, paying for project
expenses, holding substantial and intangible assets, signing
contracts, accounting, auditing, and legal assistance.

THE SPI BOARD RESOLVES THAT

3. Rigs of Rods is formally invited to become an SPI Associated
Project, according to the SPI Framework for Associated Projects,
SPI Resolution 1998-11-16.iwj.1-amended-2004-08-10.iwj.1, a copy
of which can be found at
https://www.spi-inc.org/corporate/resolutions/2004/2004-08-10.iwj.1/

4. Rafael Galvan is recognised by SPI as the authoritative decision
maker and SPI Liaison for Rigs of Rods. Successors will be
appointed by the project leader.

5. If the last known SPI Liaison for Rigs of Rods is unreachable and
no new SPI Liaison is appointed for two consecutive years, the
associated project is deemed defunct.

6. In such a circumstance, the SPI Board will, in its good-faith
discretion, proceed as follows: the Board will identify one or
more other SPI associated projects or 501(c)(3) charities which
can accept the project's assets and use them for a similar
purpose, and transfer the assets to the identified destination or
destinations as feasible. Assets for which no such transfer can
be arranged within a reasonable time will become part of the SPI
general fund.

7. This invitation will lapse, if not accepted, 60 days after it is
approved by the SPI Board.
