## Open Standard Projects

Projects producing open standards require different IP rules detailing how to establish and running Open Standard Projects (see [FINOS contribution requirements](/docs/governance/Software-Projects/contribution-compliance-requirements)). New FINOS standards projects are recommended to use the [Community Specification](https://github.com/finos/standards-project-blueprint) process for standards development (earlier standards projects are governed by the, now deprecated, detailed IP rules set out in the [FINOS IP Policy](/governance-docs/IP-Policy.pdf)). All participants in standards projects are bound by these rules, even if their only contribution is participation in project meetings. This is to ensure that any specification or other materials produced by a standards project may be licensed appropriately to all standard users and implementers. Please create a [new Standard Project issue](https://github.com/finos/community/issues/new?assignees=agitana%2C+maoo%2C+TheJuanAndOnly99&labels=contribution&template=Standards-Project-Contribution.md&title=Standard+Project+Contribution+and+Onboarding) if you'd like to propose a new standard project (FINOS Members only). The FINOS Governing Board approves new Open Standard Projects.

## Special Interest Groups
Special Interest Groups can be proposed by any FINOS Member (and only by FINOS Members) and are approved by the Governing Board, including a Charter and initial SIG chair. Over time the SIG can decide to vote in a new Chair or the Board can appoint one. The Charter may also be updated from time to time with updates published publicly. Read more for [a list of current SIGs](/docs/governance/special-interest-groups) and how to propose a new SIG.
