Community Groups

Community Groups hosted on this website

Community Groups are social groups whose members engage in open conversations and will have representation in the governance process. Although communities do not have source repositories, it's expected that communities will associate with technical projects and sponsor projects of their own.

Community members can propose new Community Groups by writing to the ogb-discuss list outlining items such as goals, technical scope, potential participants, leaders, and activities. Proposals need to list at least 3 current Core Contributors who are nominating the community, at least 3 participants who will become the initial Core Contributors of the new community, and one person who will serve as the community's Facilitator. Further details on Community Group creation and governance can be found in Article VII of the governance documentation. Also, the Collective Life Cycle Instructions document explains all the implementation details for activating and deactivating all of the site's collectives.
