THE COMMONS IS:
An open community that grows through your participation. Access to tools, resources, and human energy. A safe and welcoming place where creativity and kindness are encouraged.
--------------------------------------------------------
The Commons is organized and staffed completely by volunteers and is funded by donations. While recognizing that we live in a generally unsafe worl
d, and that people are at many different levels of education and experience, we are committed to cultivating a safer space where many voices can be heard and any incidents can be discussed and processed as a community. Because we run this thing on a consensus model, all policies are up for discussion and revision.
--------------------------------------------------------
Code of Conduct as of June 2016:
