 <h3>3 rules (for using the emailaddress and planets):</h3>

+Very roughly, the wording here and the procedure still needs some polishing:
 <ul>
 <li>be nice</li>
 <li>respect other members of the community</li>
 <li>only use the email address for debian-related matters</li>

+None, at the moment and for a start. At the moment it's mostly me, I hope 
+more people will jump and join in. And I believe we can run this informally 
 for quite a while without any problems. In the long term I think an official 
 endorsement from Debian is important (and maybe we want more rules how to use 
 the ressources, too. Maybe..) and therefore a clear goal of the project.
