This policy is meant to clarify how communications are handled at HacDC.  We have an obligation to:
#REDIRECT[[Communications Methods]]
 
* Collaborate clearly and effectively within HacDC.
* Communicate effectively with the general public.
 
This policy outlines the various methods of communication necessary to facilitate the mission of HacDC.
 
== E-Mail ==
 
E-mail is the front line of contact between HacDC and the outside world.  It is also how most contact happens within the organization.  The communications policy spells out how e-mail is to be used by HacDC for maximum effectiveness and mibs.
 
=== Member E-mail Addresses/Aliases ===
 
Each member is entitled to an @hacdc.org e-mail account.  HacDC shall offer hosting for @hacdc.org e-mail accounts or offer the option of forwarding to the member's chosen e-mail address.  Member e-mail shall not be archived, except as chosen by the member in a hosted e-mail account.
 
=== Organizational Contact E-mail Addresses ===
 
Generic e-mail addresses should be lists comprised of members serving that particular function.  Each generic list should also have an archival function associated with it, either an archive e-mail address or a web archive available only to members of the list.
 
The following are the current OC e-mail addresses

Replies shall be handled by members from whatever e-mail address they choose to reply from.  However, '''all replies must cc: the original contact list.'''
 
=== Project Contact E-Mail Addresses ===
 
Each ongoing project must have an e-mail address associated with it.  The e-mail address may be an alias for the project coordinator, a discussion list for the project as a whole or an alias to info@ so [[The Ministers]] may be able to send project inquiries to the correct relevant parties.  In any case, the status of each project contact e-mail must be documented here:
