The Community Council is a small group of members from both Microsoft and the Community. The Community Council takes responsibility for the following goals and tasks:
The Community Council is modeled on the Ubuntu Leadership Code of Conduct, whose “foremost goal is ensuring that their team members and team succeed.” Early tasks of the Council included clarifying policies around plagiarism and non-English content.
2020 current members include:
The Community Council meets as required to achieve its goals (usually once a month). Find previous members listed here.
Members are invited. See TechNet Wiki Community Council: How to Become a Member.
The team members sign up to work on 10 areas of focus each month (1 per person). See the Community Council Areas of Focus (a concept started in 2013). That page includes future areas of focus to add in future months as we cycle through the different focus areas.
See the original 2010 and 2011 Archive of Meeting Minutes for the Community Council.
