Trying to read the IRC logs, I'm not able to find the description for the conflict of interest? Does this mean that you can't be a member of two free software organizations working on the same code base or doing similar works? It makes no sense. By essence,if the code is free software, you can contribute on both and be part of the two. Now, if one of the organization wants to avoid free software, we could see the future "conflict of interest"...
