Define the partnership process for all companies

Changes to be done / revieweed:

  • Where do we want to include the OpenJS Foundation?
  • Do we have specific timeline to communicate about a partnership?
  • Is there needed due diligence to be done
  • Do we want to favor email / slack / github discussion?

@sheplu sheplu force-pushed the companies-x-express branch 2 times, most recently from 1835c2f to 8fdce64 Compare July 7, 2025 19:27

### Step 3: Decision & Agreement

If the partnership is approved, Express.js will provide a simple agreement document outlining:

* Objectives
* Roles & responsibilities
* Duration (if applicable)
* Branding guidelines and limitations
* Code of conduct and open source contribution standards

Both parties must review and confirm the agreement before the partnership is publicly acknowledged.

In this part, I think we should include the foundation

We should add a short presentation in a meeting, like the one done with Scrimba, so we can discuss any questions we have during the meeting.
