   including accepting donations, holding funds, paying for project
expenses,
   signing contracts, and legal assistance.
THE SPI BOARD RESOLVES THAT
3. Rocket (RWF2) 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. Sergio Benitez is recognised by SPI as the authoritative decision maker
   and SPI liaison for Rocket (RWF2). Successors will be appointed by the
   RWF2 board (https://github.com/orgs/rwf2/people) via direcy majority of
   present vote.

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.
