We, the core development teams, unanimously believe:
- An open source project is about people producing free and open software and contributing to something as a team for the benefit of others.
- Open source projects reflect the spirit of collaboration and fun while garnering community feedback and providing good governance that allows for business to confidently invest in its development.
- Open source projects are open to the participation of anybody who can contribute value and is willing to work with the community.
Those 81 words were our Declaration of Independence.
