Phipps: The Open-By-Rule Governance Benchmark

Simon Phipps offers some suggestions on how to judge a project's governance. "Can you find everything about the community, including why things happened as well as what happened? Are all the governance conversations visible (apart from the bits where personal privacy is appropriate)? Can you track all the commits and find out why each was made? An open-by-rule community will have it all there somewhere, including the dirty laundry (arguments, trolls and the like)."
