Decentralized-id.com is a collaborative, participatory learning community oriented that strives to support the elaboration and adoption of a user-controlled decentralized identity layer for the internets of the future. All of this is a labor of love and a work in progress, but certain shared values undergird our work and set the terms of our engagement with the broader public. We strive to be:
\- **Educational**. Our primary motivation is to make it easier to navigate the information around creating decentralized identity systems. To create a decentralized identity layer for the internet is a monumental task. Understanding the history of this effort, and it's many inter-related parts, is helpful for weighing potential solutions. However, as it stands such information is widely dispersed, and it takes quite a bit of effort and research to gather all of this information into one place. Once the most important themes and elements are laid out, and organized for our consumption, it should be easier to move forward with the best solutions for each use case.

Understanding the history of this effort, and it's numerous inter-related parts, is helpful for weighing and\or creating potential solutions. As it stands, such information is widely dispersed, and it requires much effort and research to gather it into one place. Once the essential themes are organized for our consumption, it should be easier to move forward in whatever direction we are pursuing.
\- **Impartial**. We never play favorites, take sides, offer investment advice, or play into market dynamics whereby identity service vendors and platforms jockey for relative advantage. The best we can do is share the strengths and weaknesses of each implementation, and when concerns are raised make that information available, as well. We and\or our contributors are likely to have our own prejudices. However, we aim to leave them at the door, and when necessary present them in a calm and non-adversarial fashion. The important thing is for the Internet to have a Decentralized Identity Layer. Not for any particular application or organization to win.
\- **Impartial**. We aim for impartiality. It is not our intention to play favorites, take sides, offer investment advice, or play into market dynamics whereby vendors and platforms jockey for relative advantage. The best we can do is to present the most complete picture possible, in breadth and depth. The strengths and weaknesses of each implementation are presented as we encounter them.

\- **Inclusive**. Community bonds are the only effective countermeasure against profit motives and ulterior motives. Everyone is welcome to contribute to this resource. Ideally, it will mature to the point that the community can maintain it with minimal effort from any particular individual. It is outside the scope of this document, but detailed contributors guidelines are forthcoming and should make it easy for anyone to participate.
