GNU consensus

GNU consensus is an umbrella project to facilitate coordination of free software social networking projects to encourage freedom, privacy, public space, and decentralization.

Documentation

Please read the GNU consensus Manifesto. You may also refer to the ongoing work on the wiki.

When they become available, the manuals will be linked from here.

Mailing lists

Due to the nature and youth of the project, we currently provide a unique list <consensus@gnu.org>. As the project evolves, more lists may appear, on specific topics.

Getting involved

Development of GNU consensus, and GNU in general, is a volunteer effort, and you can contribute. For information, please read How to help GNU. If you'd like to get involved, it's a good idea to join the discussion mailing list.
