              RIOT is developed by an open community that anyone is welcome to join.
              Decisions in the RIOT community are driven by rough consensus, similar to the IETF. 
              We have a <a href="https://github.com/RIOT-OS/RIOT/blob/master/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md" target="_blank">Code of Conduct</a> to make the social behavoir we value clear.

              We have a <a href="#history" class="scrollto">history</a> of continuous development and progress. Most of our communication is done virtually based on discussions on <a href="https://github.com/RIOT-OS/RIOT/issues" target="_blank">GitHub</a> or our <a href="https://forum.riot-os.org" target="_blank">forum</a>. To foster collaboration, we organize a yearly <a href="#summit" class="scrollto">RIOT Summit</a>.

                  RIOT goes public, founded by Freie Universit&auml;t Berlin, INRIA, and HAW
