(Small updates reflecting current status)
We are a group with diverse views who listen to the range of views across the OpenStreetMap community and work to create a practical and clearly communicatable consensus. We are friendly and courteous. We are always open to new members, whether to take part regularly or to work on a particular issue that frustrates you.
 
Our core member are expected to join regularly join our voice conference meetings in English and take on an average of one action item per meeting, generally to do some kind of research. WeRegulars currentlymembers useare "mumble"expected forto voicesign conferencinga NDA with the OSMF as we now and then handle confidential 3rd party information. We will typically discuss or track an issue over several months.
 
If you want to help from time to time or want to work on a particular issue and then stop, you are still welcome to join our meetings.
We understand that can be very difficult for non-native English speakers. So if you just want to use email, that is fine. Working with many countries is becoming increasingly important to us.
 
Roughly half of us are lawyers, however it is no way a requirement to participating. All we ask is genuine concern to protect the ideals and interests of OpenStreetMap and open data and to make life easier for contributors and end users. Do contact us (best by mail to legal@osmfoundation.org)!
