Manifesto Compliance Plan

Values

Open Governance

Already open goverance to some extent, anyone with a KDE account can contribute, mailing list and IRC available.

Focus point: mailing list under used, people tend to mail directly Bruno in private. Proposed action: push contributors toward the mailing list for discussions.

Free Software

All GPL v3+, no brainer.

Inclusivity

No barrier known toward the contributors.

Innovation

Not really applying to this area, that said, spearhead efforts on Android, Windows port and such.

Common Ownership

All clear no known barrier, anyone can contribute directly.

End-User Focus

Perfectly in target, software for children and schools.

Commitments

  • Code of Conduct: supported
  • Contributor License Agreement: none
  • Established practices: CMake + Qt like most, code reviews except for most active core contributors
  • Source materials hosted on our git infrastructure (in playground/edu)
  • Online services, some are not on KDE infrastructure:

  • voice assets: should migrate to KDE infra
  • source tarballs: should migrate to KDE infra
