### Kubernetes Ecosystem

There are related [Kubernetes GitHub organizations], such as [kubernetes-sigs].
We are currently working on automation that would transfer membership in the
Kubernetes organization to any related orgs automatically, but such is not the
case currently. If you are a Kubernetes org member, you are implicitly eligible
for membership in related orgs, and can request membership when it becomes
relevant, by creating a PR directly or [opening an issue][membership request]
case currently. If you are a member of one of these Orgs, you are implicitly
eligible for membership in related orgs, and can request membership when it
becomes relevant, by creating a PR directly or [opening an issue][membership request]
against the kubernetes/org repo, as above.

However, if you are a member of any of the related
[Kubernetes GitHub organizations] but not of the [Kubernetes org],
you will need explicit sponsorship for your membership request.
