The Common Domain Model is an open standard project hosted under FINOS, the Fintech Open Source Foundation, starting in February 2023.
The standard is developed through the Community Specification open governance process, and underlying code assets are released under the Community Specification License 1.0. For versions before 4.0.0 and other license details, check Notice.md.
To participate in the standard process and working group meetings, enroll as a participant by completing a Community Specification Contributor License Agreement (CSL CLA). All meetings are to be held in accordance with the FINOS policies and procedures.
