Technical Privileges

- 4 hours per week of consulting time with senior engineers on the GateD internals.

- Availability of 2 senior engineers to attend two one-day project meetings to advise
  on GateD internals.
- 1 Voting Member to attend GateD Consortium Meetings.

This membership is available only to those engaged in academic and research use of the GateD and associated tools. The Merit GateD Consortium reserves the right to limit the number of Technical Advisory Memberships. Since this membership requires senior staff, only a limited set of memberships will be available.

It is anticipated that the members of a Project requesting the Technical Advisory membership will request GateD source code and binaries via the Merit GateD Consortium's Academic and Research Membership. This membership does not provide any source code or binary redistribution license to the members.
