Document codebase objectives

Be on the lookout for people, organizations and initiatives with similar objectives to see if you can collaborate rather than compete.

Requirements

The codebase MUST contain documentation of its objectives, like a mission and goal statement, that is understandable by developers and designers so that they can use or contribute to the codebase.

Examples

• Omgevingsbeleid objectives
• Vision and mission of Govdirectory

Tools

• Data Ethics Canvas by the Open Data Institute helps identify and manage ethical issues.

Codebase documentation SHOULD clearly describe the connections between policy objectives and codebase objectives.

Examples

Documenting the objectives of the codebase for the general public is OPTIONAL.
