We do not have any restrictions on the roles that are eligible to become TAC Contributor; this includes practitioners, vendor members, consultants and cloud service providers.

Additionally, serving as a TAC Contributor will provide a pathway for community members to eventually become TAC voting members. It's worth mentioning that while being a TAC Contributor is not a prerequisite for becoming a TAC voting-member, it is helpful when considering a candidate given the expectation of their involvement internally with the F2's WGs, & SIGs.
