What is the Puppy Linux Community?
The contributing members of the Puppy Linux community. Contributing would be the key word here.
How is it, or rather how are we, organized?
By resource (e.g. website domain, CMS, chatroom), project (e.g. documentation, promotion, Community Edition releases), and legal entity/endeavor (e.g. for and not for profit).
Each resource always has at minimum one primary administrator (admin). The primary admin(s) would, at their discretion, either delegate admin duties by perceived merit or by community consensus/vote. Those with delegated admin duties could delegate even further down "the ladder" of responsibilities.
Each project would be focused toward a certain goal(s). Accomplishing these goals would typically spread across and utilize multiple resources. Those working on these projects seems best to be called teams. Now some projects would need someone to have the final/say decision (team leader) and others would not and so the structure/hierarchy would be dependent on those in the team involved in each project.
For certain things there would be a need or at least benefit to having legally recognizable entities in place. They would be required for financial transactions in relation to Puppy Linux, although they would have other benefits, as well. A not for profit organization for receiving donations and/or a business selling Puppy Linux pre-installed on CD/DVDs, USB flash drives, and computers are good examples. Each entity in a locality would be subject to its local laws and have its own internal structure. Unquestionably, any legal endeavor relating to Puppy Linux would need to be cleared with Barry Kauler. Now of course there are businesses, organizations, and educational institutions that could be in this category without being devoted primarily to Puppy Linux, as well.
Hopefully, we would work together and avoid duplication and wasted efforts but as is the way of open source and free software there will be many variations of methods, goals, etc. in which all positive contributions should be welcomed.
The following will be reorganized, moved and split off to other wiki pages in time:
