Though not needed by the lazy consensus model: +1 from my side to your proposal. Maybe as some sort of inspiration: I've been watching the work of http://innersourcecommons.org for a while this year. I really like the approach of writing up their kind of advise in the form of patterns: To me that makes it easier to figure out which advise fixes which problems. Maybe something we can consider here as well. Two little anecdotes as a bit of motivation: Years ago I was chatting with Pieter Hintjens on how the Apache Way puts community over code. The first point there http://hintjens.com/blog:95 is what came out of that. When giving my "Open source is just about the source, isn't it?" talk as a keynote earlier this year I was approached by one of the attendees telling me how they had modelled their open source community after what we do at The ASF. IMHO there would be an interested audience for this type of information.
