Here are some of the things that guide me in my decision- making about governance and Apache communities. Please feel to add you own thoughts on the subject!
1) Fairness and Equitable Treatment- that it is wrong to apply different standards to different people based solely on their (external) accrued status. 2) Tolerance- that we respect the diversity of opinion without the need for tit-for-tat arguments about who is "right". 3) Fun- that the nature of participation here is personally satisfying and not onerous. 4) Consistency- that we don't apply different standards to different people based on whatever hot topic is currently being debated. 5) Competence- that we entrust people who are most familiar with the work being performed to exercise their oversight and judgement about the codebase. 6) Empowerment- that people who show sustained levels of competence and oversight capabilities are rewarded with higher levels of organizational responsibility.
