Document review and analysis outlining support parameters.
Clarification of roles and responsibilities related to author independence.

Real funding or employment questions must be addressed separately.

Abstract

Author Support & Independence Statement is a Final v1. 0 document in the Aegis Solis Archive / Preservation / Independence Boundary Statement layer. This document is a short companion to the Preservation Funding & Decentralized Stewardship Statement. It separates personal support for the author from ownership, editorial control, interpretive authority, governance rights, or authority over final archive texts. The statement preserves one boundary: support may help the author continue the work, but support may not purchase authority over the work. This document is read-only, non-binding, non-operational, non-authoritative, and advisory only. It is not a donor agreement, employment agreement, legal instrument, governance framework, funding mechanism, tax statement, or financial promise. Real financial, legal, employment, or accounting questions remain outside this document and require proper handling separately.
