Spread the awareness on Apache in the local community.
Host various events for local open source lovers (at least should have one monthly meetup).
Share the details about ASF, The Apache Way, and various Apache's projects in local students, developers, and the business community.
Bring together project users and developers.
How ALC Chapter will be formed
Each town/city will strictly have single ALC chapter.
If ALC chapter doesn't exist in the town, the interested volunteer can send a mail to dev@community.apache.org with subject line as,
"[ALC] Request to setup ALC in <name-of-your-town-or-city>"
Benefits of ALC
We have limited ApacheCon and Roadshow, the ALC will open the doors for having frequent and small events.
It will be a platform for committers from different projects (living in the same town/city) to meet and exchange knowledge, thoughts, and ideas. Currently, it happens the committer of one Apache project doesn't know much about the committer from another project (both belongs to the same town ;)
Building community, as the Apache maxim "Community Over Code".
If any ALC Chapter is inactive for 6 month, it will be dissolved after communication with members of that ALC chapter because we are having strictly one ALC chapter in a town/city.
The ALC Chapter shares the status report to ComDev in every three months. The report includes details on the activities performed by ALC Chapter and it's impact.
Addition information
Just to avoid any confusion, ALC is not about the committers monthly meetup.
ALC is a local group of Apache enthusiast (It is not mandatory to have committers to form an ALC chapter, if they are present, it will be helpful for that ALC chapter).
