[liberationtech] Moderation Guidelines

[Yosem Companys]

Dear All,

We've recently instituted moderation guidelines for the Liberationtech list
to help improve your experience in the community.  Please heed the following
guidelines:

1. Liberationtech is YOUR list.  Use it to ask advice on strategic or
technical questions, offer advice on questions raised, share interesting
resources or articles, or post jobs, internships, grant announcements, CFPs,
or RFPs.  Any member of the group can post to the list.  So if you have
anything interesting to share, a question you are puzzling over, or
something you learned in your work, please feel free to draw on the
community!

2. Liberationtech is NOT a list for selling, marketing, or advertising
products (or services), so please refrain from doing so.  Product questions
and reviews are fine.  Hard sells are not.

3. Please keep discussions constructive and civil.  All topics, in so far as
they relate to Liberationtech as defined above, are fine.  Be aware,
however, that there are people from many different countries and cultures on
this list, so please be considerate of these cultural and national
differences when you contribute.  We have a zero-tolerance policy for anyone
who posts inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages to our community.

4. And a few obvious things: Remember to use a good subject line when you
post; keep "me too" messages to a minimum; if you read this list via a
digest, delete extraneous messages when responding and explain (or avoid)
technical terms or industry-specific jargon so that everyone can understand
what you mean.

Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

Best,

Yosem Companys (NOT a company, just a last name)
One of your Liberationtech moderators
