Local Chapters and Communities Working Group/Moderation Subcommittee

From OpenStreetMap Foundation

The LCCWG Moderation Subcommittee was a temporary group of OSM community members assembled in response to a decision by the OpenStreetMap Foundation (OSMF) Board to “find partners to help instate a moderator team for the OSMF-talk and talk mailing lists”. In their December 2020 meeting, the OSMF Board requested that the LCCWG take the lead on this initiative and subsequently this group was formed as a subcommittee of LCCWG. The main results of the group's work are the Etiquette Guidelines, the Process for Moderation and the Moderation team for talk and osmf-talk mailing lists.
