Line 21:

There is no filter and no selection process: you can start right away.

At this stage, open participation takes place in the [[Markets/en/Portal:All Portals/Main|Markets]] space, where anyone can propose use cases, contract templates and complete structures. The rest of the platform (governance, policies, institutions, everything outside the Markets) can currently be edited only by people holding administration rights. If you would like to take part in that work, the first step proposed is to identify yourself and contact us at info@wikideal.net, so that these rights can be granted to ~~you~~. This arrangement reflects the current stage of the project and is offered as a working basis, open to discussion.

If you would like to take part in that work, the first step proposed is to identify yourself and contact us at info@wikideal.net, so that these rights can be granted by an administrator, after analysis and case by case (see the [[Gov/en/Portal:Onboarding/How-to-Contribute#beyond-markets|criteria envisaged]]). This arrangement reflects the current stage of the project and is offered as a working basis, open to discussion.

When you write to us, tell us what you would like to build for WikiDeal and your availability, which can range from a few volunteer hours per week to full-time work supported by a grant or occasional libre-licensed contributions.
