Web Collaboration Strategy

Introduction

The web collaboration strategy revolves around creating a high standards, open participation platform.

In practice, this may look like this:

To do this, we:

1. Publish our work openly to attract people. Assume that somebody found us, then:
2. Person is invited to join the Forums for discussion. Forums direct people to the Crash Course. Forum Moderators guide the individual to contributing. Development
3. The Development Team has access to the GVCS CiviCRM platform, so that all participants can be entered into a database to facilitate project development.
4. Project Managers lead project development. They may serve as Forum Moderators.
5. The Resource Development Team provides funding for non-volunteer work. GVCS governance occurs via voting with initiative and wallets.

High Standards, Open Participation Platform

There appears to be a contradiction between attaining quality results (high performance standards) and allowing open participation in a project. This contradiction is eliminated with:

• Development Process Transparency
• proper Collaborator Evaluation
• matching collaborator skills with assigned tasks
