RBE10K/Contributors
The RBE10K Project is open to the participation of anyone who has an interest, regardless of an intention to live in the experimental community itself. This Wiki is the main platform for the engineering of the systems and methodologies that will support the community, and anyone is welcome to participate in one of many ways.

Getting started
Participating in the project begins by registering as a user of the wiki, either through the normal registration form or using a Facebook account by clicking on the link on the top-right of the page. The current contributors to the project are registered in the RBE10K Project Participants page, and anyone is invited to add themselves to the list. In line with the Project's values of openness, honesty and individuality, we request that each contributor create a personal wiki user page with their own understanding of an RBE and the objectives sought after through participation in RBE10K.

Everybody is welcome to participate of The RBE10K Project. Nevertheless, there are a number of requirements that need to be met in order to have a positive (rather than a negative) participation. Should those requirements not be met, there are plenty of other similar projects that may be more adequate for participation instead, such as The Venus Project, Transition Towns, or even a political party or a church.
Participation of the experiment as a knowledge-base contributor
Participation of the experiment as a settler
RBE10K cities would require each newcomer to bring some of the necessary materials and resources to help build the community, for a value of roughly 10,000 units of their currency (€, £, US/NZ/CA $, or roughly equivalent), non-refundable, and as per the requirements specified in the knowledgebase, using a system to establish allotments and administration priorities. Every newcomer would also be required to agree to a simple list of terms and conditions for life in a RBE, including giving up rights to property, trade, blame, personal opinion outside matters of personal preference, etc (such terms and conditions would be an essential building block of the knowledgebase). Newcomers would also be encouraged to commit to a minimum of two years participation in the community, while engaged primarily in assisting with one or more of the three main objectives of the city.
