publiccode.yml Working Group Charter

The publiccode.yml Working Group is a community of people with the common goal of evolving and maintaining the publiccode.yml Standard.

We welcome contributions by everyone, in the form of Pull Requests.

To ensure the development of the project is always aligned to the needs of public agencies, we set up a Steering Committee composed solely of public servants. The Committee is tasked with the formal voting required to evolve the core Standard.

All other tools are community-maintained.

Steering Committee (@publiccodeyml/steering-committee)

  • 🇩🇰 Denmark: @zorp for OS2 Offentlig Digitaliseringsfællesskab
  • 🇫🇷 France: @bzg for the Free Software unit at the Interministerial Digital Directorate
  • 🇩🇪 Germany: @cknebel (publicplan GmbH)
  • 🇮🇱 Israel: @ShimonShore (Israel Ministry of Science and Technology)
  • 🇮🇹 Italy: @ruphy for DTD (Presidenza del Consiglio dei Ministri)

The Steering Committee members can vote on proposals on Pull Requests, the workflow is detailed in procedure-proposing-changes.md

We don't have strict rules, as every country is different, but suggest that the appointed member should be part of a central entity managing software or technological innovation at the government level.
