Values

The values that shape the RISC-V Ottawa community and the way we work together.

01

Open ISA, open community

Default to public meetings, open-licensed materials, and transparent finances.

02

Hands-on

Workshops produce things; talks come with code or RTL. Build, break, contribute.

03

Vendor-neutral

No exclusive sponsor content and no single-vendor cheerleading; sponsors get visibility, not editorial control.

04

Be excellent to each other

Default to charitable interpretation; address harm directly and quickly.

05

Respect everyone's time

Events start on time, end on time, and have a clear point; async-first comms; no pointless meetings.
