[Whonix-devel] How to Run a Successful Free Software Project

Sat Nov 1 08:53:00 CET 2014

This is a recommendation for a Libre / Free book that applies to the Whonix Libre Software project.

Link to the online version of the book: http://producingoss.com

Table of Contents: http://producingoss.com/en/index.html

Especially important I find at the moment chapter 4, Social and Political Infrastructure that discusses leadership, decision finding, participation, voting rights, voting systems, polls, consensus and more.

I wanted to keep this blog post neutral and only informative. In later blog posts I'll follow up with other useful concepts such as consensus, the systemic consensus principle, do-ocracy as well as with the current state of decision finding / participation in Whonix development. After that I plan on starting a discussion on how we want to handle these things in Whonix.
