"Leave it clean(er) than you found it" requires remembering how you found it, requires being observant before you started changing things, requires attentive #mindfulness
Thinking more and more about the interaction between #governance and state of mind. It clearly has an impact: a bunch of rules can be avoided.

New blog post, about a recent obsession of mine: off-the-shelf #governance models applicable to small #FOSS projects. What do you think of the idea? Would you like to work on that together? https://antonin.delpeuch.eu/posts/off-the-shelf-governance-models-for-small-foss-projects/
After the Code of Conduct and the Mediation process, the Cooperative Development Guidelines now have a Governance Document that can be used by any Organization/Foundation/Collective/Community/Project that wants to have a governance based on participatory, equity and permacomputing/accessibility principles.
Its time for us to finally start building participatory digital commons, that are developed by the community and for the community and the Governance document is part 1 of doing just that. (Decision making and Structure will follow after this).
I am also excited to announce that @queerspark has also been listed as a collective that adopted pieces of the Cooperative Development Guidelines.

The new @joinjabber governance is also based on the Cooperative Development Guidelines governance template.
