RBE10K/Teams

Teamwork is an essential component of The RBE10K Project. RBE10K is a community project, and therefore it is not owned by anyone, but the result of the concerted effort of everyone. Teams allow for self-governance and make participation easier, as participants are then able to rely on each other's skills and experience.

Teams are ideally more than one person, however they are likely to all begin as a single person effort. Participants are encouraged to engage with each other requesting participation on teams, and working together. Teams are also encouraged to be small enough to enable a satisfactory level of self-governance and familiarity, a number of people not greater than what can be handled by online meeting software such as Skype or Google+ Hangouts. Teams are also encouraged to be local whenever possible, and get to know each other in person, and ideally share activities such as picnics or camping together.

Registration

Teams are registered in the wiki much like users. Any contributor can create a new team, and work as a unipersonal team.

Any contributors interested in a particular team can request joining it; such request may be granted or denied.

Bettermeans

The software Bettermeans is recommended for use by all participants. In certain cases it may seem unnecessary, however it does provide for convenient and organised horizontal governance.

Old participation page

Teams superseed the old RBE10K Project Participants. Also, each participat registers on teams in their own personal page, by means of their participant details record.
