Description
Open Collective values transparency. Their moto is "raise and spend money with full transparency". The Open Collective + Gateway + PolicyKit integration can advance this value and mission by embedding policy metadata into a collective's admin bot (previously proposed to be "Collective Voice").
Hovering over the Collective Voice admin, a visitor to the collective could see how the community makes decisions about different types of expenses. Here is a mockup of this feature.
This metadata could serve at least four functions:
- Potential donors can see if the way that a collective makes decisions about expense approval aligns with their own decision making ideals
- Creating an ecosystem of signaling how funds are collective managed, thus establishing norms
- Creating a latent discovery mechanism by which people could search for collectives on Open Collective, i.e. I am a user that wants to see all of the collectives who adopt a consensus based approach to expense approval
- Offering metadata for people studying different models for collective money management, e.g. a successful open source software organization with 100+ contributors and a certain business model tends to use x, y, or z collective funding model. This is another norm and precedent setting mechanism
