I’m working on cleaning up our rules to be shorter and clearer. In my opinion the current rules are too vague in some parts and overly specific in others. I have posted my proposed ruleset on the wiki page Proposed Rules.
For reference, you can find the existing rules on the Rules and Policies page of the wiki.
The major changes I am proposing are:
- Additional explanation of “be excellent”.
- No sleeping clarification.
- Ban on vaping inside the space.
- Additional explanation of the formal complaint process and when it should be used.
- Additional clarification on minor rules (this will likely change based on the input from @Andrew_Falgout’s meeting about minors).
- Simplification of paid event rules. Now a flat 25%, instead of 15%/25% depending on conditions.
- Committee governance change to “dictatorship” by default, with rules for how the committee may choose their governance model.
- Deleted “borrowing of tools” section, as the system was not used and potentially gave people the impression they could remove any tool/resource from the space.
