Are we an open community?

by davidcrow

Is BarCamp a closed community? Are we closed? I've been asked that about whether our activities in Toronto are really open.

What is an open community?

Wikipedia describes openness as “basis of how groups and organizations operate, typified by communal management and open access to the information or materials resources needed for projects”. I think that we've operationalized “openness” in the TorCamp community in two different methods.

  1. Open access
  2. Transparent decision making
