I've read a bit more, and it goes further - they have three roles, which fit well with our classification: * Contributor (someone that contributes anything to the project) * Member (which get votes, and whom recurring contractors would be part of) * Core team (elected by members, but nominated by core team members - it's the role of representation, reporting to all stakeholders and maintaining the values through governance policies) http://help.bettermeans.com/faq/membership Xavier. _______________________________________________ Farsides mailing list - [email protected] Wiki: http://farsides.com/ List: http://farsides.com/ml/ Forum: http://farsides.com/forum/ Ideas: http://farsides.com/ideas/ Chat: http://farsides.com/chat/
