Community guidelines

cosomething works when people are honest and clear with each other. These guidelines apply to projects, applications, messages and profiles.

Be honest

• Describe your project and your experience truthfully.
• Don't pretend to be someone else or to have credentials you don't have.

Be clear about terms

• Say what a seat involves, how long it lasts and how people are rewarded. If it's not decided, say so.
• Don't promise a seat, equity or payment you don't intend to give.
• Don't ask for large amounts of unpaid work to evaluate someone. A small, clearly scoped trial that tests how you work together is fine. Collecting free work is not.

Respect people

• No harassment, hate, threats or sexual content.
• Decline applications kindly. A short note helps.
• Keep what's said in team spaces and applications private.

Keep it safe and legal

• No spam, scams, or advertising unrelated to a real collaboration.
• Don't post anything illegal, or anyone's private information.
• Credit people for their work and agree who owns what before you make something together.
