<h2>Introduction</h2>
<p><s>Believe it or not, Noisebridge has policies and procedures. They are called
"policies and procedures" because that's what every other organization calls them:<br />
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Policies_and_procedures http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Policies_and_procedures]
</p>


<p>All of these policies and procedures exist for a reason. Some are legal requirements. Others are for everybody's safety. Some are just
to prevent petty disputes and avoid misunderstandings.</s></p>
<p>Actually, this isn't quite accurate. Noisebridge does not have policies and procedures except that which is necessary to comply with California and Federal non-profit law. However, a number of customary behaviors which may at first look like policies and procedures have emerged over the several years of Noisebridge's existence. Some of them are below.
