Basically, transparency means that we have nothing to hide and in fact have a lot to gain by putting as much information out to the public as possible. By doing this, we get feedback from as many perspectives as possible--allowing us to refine our ideas or correct our course. This is part of building the [[collaborating_to_build_the_commons| commons]].

Transparency is a pivotal value at [[AboutUs]] both for our staff and our [[Portal:AboutUsCommunity|community]] at large.  It involves our commitment to openness and accountability.  We live our values by publishing notes of our meetings, using open source coding, communicating in public talk pages and a public IRC channel, and providing a record of our edits on each of our [[PersonalPage| Personal Pages]].
  
So, we publish notes to our meetings, we use open source coding, and we look forward to the improvements that come from engaging the [[Portal:AboutUsCommunity|community]] in our efforts.

Transparency is a pivotal value at AboutUs both for our staff and our community at large. It involves our commitment to openness and accountability. We live our values by publishing notes of our meetings, using open source coding, communicating in public talk pages and a public IRC channel, and providing a record of our edits on each of our Personal Pages.

It is our hope that by publicizing our actions and our projects we will engage you, our community. If you would like to help build the commons, please see HowYouCanHelp.
