It’s important to have explicitly defined values, these are ours:
- We welcome all skill sets
- The Knative community should strive to be approachable, welcoming, and friendly to new contributors.
- All contributions are recognized
- A successful project requires contributions of many different kinds, from code to program management to customer research. As a community we want status within the project to be derived from contributions to the project recognizing that all contribution types have value.
- Roles and skills should be aligned so contributors feel empowered to lead. If someone is doing the work, the role should be codified / formalized; eg glue, release, notes, PM.
- Leadership roles should be earned by individuals based on their contributions in the project over time.
- We value transparency and visibility
- Decision making should be as transparent as possible at each level in the
project:
- Work and decisions should happen in public.
- All contributors should follow the same process, regardless of their employer.
- There should be public notes and meeting recordings so that anyone can follow discussion regardless of their timezone or ability to meet.
- Decision making should be as transparent as possible at each level in the
project:
- Focus on what is right for the users ("delight our users")
- We should be wearing community hats in the community; community over company.
- Focus on what’s right for the users.
- We welcome structured, customer-driven features (end-users, PM roles).
- We value feedback
- There should be well-defined, visible, accountable feedback loops.
