 corporate fundraising for the benefit of Project Jupyter. This committee will be
 tasked with raising funds and budgeting the funds they raise in close
 collaboration with the Project’s leadership (EC).

+## What measures will the EC take to ensure that Jupyter has a level playing field for participation that is not skewed by the financial resources of its players?

+The decision-making authority of Project Jupyter is vested in the voting bodies
+of our governance model. This does not change when we change fiscal sponsors.
+The primary authority that we are granting to players with substantial financial
+resources is to have a vote in how the funds they donate will be spent for the
+benefit of Project Jupyter and the goals that are set by the EC and the SSC. To
+ensure this, our agreement with the Linux Foundation will be to explicitly leave
+intact our current governance model as it is.
