Hi friends,

Today, members of the Open Organization community (coordinated by Ambassador 
Laura Hilliger) published the next installment in their series on evolving the 
Open Organization project and community. It's called "How an open project's 
governance model evolves." From the article:

"A community's governance model explains how that community functions. 
Maintaining a system of governance often helps a community define and describe 
the roles people play in that community. Those shared definitions and 
descriptions are important. First, they allow community members to speak a 
common language about values and ambitions. They also advance community 
members' ability to contribute, because they make explicit the rules everyone 
is playing by. And they ensure community members receive the various types of 
status and social capital they need and deserve. The best governance models are 
flexible and adaptable. They grow with their communities. As the Open 
Organization community grows, so does its governance model. We've needed to 
revisit how we describe our community and the opportunities for contribution it 
affords people. (We also fix typos.) Let us describe what we're doing."

Check it out!
