About Working Groups
Working groups are the fundamental organizational unit of Identity Commons (see Organizational Structure) they have have tremendous autonomy -- so much so that a Working Group can be a complete separate legal or social entity whose own charter or incorporation need not make any mention of Identity Commons.
- See Working Group Agreement for more about the relationship of working groups to Identity Commons.
- To propose a new working group, see Starting Working Groups.
Working Groups must have a charter that is consistent with our Purpose And Principles, and it must appoint a Steward. The Steward serves as the Working Group's representative on the Stewards Council and has a vote on organizational-wide issues, including approving of new Working Groups. Working Groups are welcome to appoint one alternative to serve on the Stewards Council when the main Steward is not available to vote.
An individual may be appointed the Steward of multiple WorkingGroups; however, the individual will only get one vote.
