yunity is a network from the people for the people that is based on self-determination, trust and cooperation. To expand this vision we have formulated recommendations and guidance for the use of slack to maintain a harmonious communication.

After joining slack, please present yourself in the general slack, e.g. what you are doing in your life, where do you mostly live, why you want to be involved and what your skills are. That will help everybody who is involved to understand better who you are and why you are here ;-)

We ask you to:

• Be friendly to each other: We are all contributing into the project out of free choice, because we share a common dream and we want to actively commit ourselves to actualize it. Instead of competition and exclusion our project requires collaboration and solidarity.

• Use respectful language: Obscene, derogatory, threatening, or hateful language is not expedient for yunity. This includes harassing or directing serious insults at another user, or being rude in a fashion that cannot be interpreted as joking and is not conducive to conversation.

• Consider the topic of the board you want to post in: Please stay on topic and respect the topic being posted about.

• Avoid spamming: Spamming consists of repeatedly entering the same message or flooding a chat with irrelevant text. Please post messages with informed opinion contributing positively to the workflow.

• Post in English language: yunity is a global project. To allow everyone to understand your post, please write it in English (You can attach a post in another language to your post in english language.).

• Confluence is a well developed, feature-rich organisation platform from Atlassian (primarily a wiki, but also profiles, calendar, etc).
• Although closed-source and commercial, they are 'open-source friendly' and have given us the open-source, cloud license.
• Permissioning is very flexible and works by creating groups with certain permissions then adding users to those groups.
• Anyone can sign up which adds them to the 'confluence users' group (can see people, calendars, etc)
• To be able to edit and create content, 'confluence users' must be added (manually) to the 'wiki-editors' group by someone in 'site-admin'.
• Currently Douglas Webb is the only 'site-admin' - throw things at him until he adds you to 'wiki-editors' (NB: currently only adding people met in person)
  • Tilmann is the backup 'site-admin' for now. Responsible for IT things, but you can also contact him for everything else.
