Contributor Guidelines¶

We must empower people to understand:

• contribution
  • how to traverse information architecture
  • access task management
  • filter into appropriate project and role
  • gain access to relevant tools/data
  • know where to get help
  • how to utilize workflows
• Representation
  • what communication channels exist, and use channels for appropriate purpose
  • organizational categories
  • articulate shared goals
  • connect formal documents (RFCs, etc) to shared goals
  • connect informal documents (memes, etc) to shared goals
  • sort information based on organizational categories
  • how to flag relevant people/call attention to anomalous data and events
• Governance
  • structure/governance type
  • submit proposals
  • conflict resolution

note:

representation and governance serve to facilitate contribution. They are not outputs in their own right.
