Hello good people of tor-project@! I'm excited to present to you something that a number of us core members have been working on for some time now: the Tor Project Social Contract 1.0 [1]. Modeled after the Debian Social Contract [2], the Tor Project Social Contract is a set of promises to our community about what Tor stands for and why we create it.
I'm sharing it with all of you today so that we can work on ratification. I think that the best way to do this is as follows:
By 6 August at 00:00 UTC, please respond to me or to the list if you accept or object to this social contract so that we can ratify this through rough consensus [3].
If objecting: Please be specific about your objections so that we can discuss changes as needed. If you respond directly to me, I will assume that you don't want your name shared with the group, but please specify if you don't want your comments shared either. NB: THIS IS NOT AN INVITATION TO EDIT BY COMMITTEE. I'm interested in feedback like "this does not represent the Tor that I know" not "I'd like this sentence reworded". Please also be kind, because this was written by humans.
If accepting: your florid prose about why you love it and think it's an astonishing work of art that reflects the diligence and care exercised by the authors is quite welcome. A show of hands (writing an email that says +1) is also fine. Questions are welcome.
If this is successfully ratified, I will publish it on the Tor blog and in some other places: probably the "About Tor" section of the website and on the Community Team wiki. If you have great ideas for other places this should live, let me know!
Thank you for your feedback, and thank you to all of the Tor folks who worked on this, especially Lunar and Roger, who got it started.
Alison
