Operational agreements for CGs

I found Arthur's feedback on CGs [1] useful.  In that statement he made 5 suggestions (labeled a-e) for content that SHOULD be included on a community's home page.  I'd like to give my support to these suggestions, and further recommend that these become MUST requirements.

Transparency is at the heart of voluntary good behavior.  With transparency, communities will be more willing to offer principled terms [2] to attract membership.  Without transparency, members will naively join in good faith (after all the W3C is a principled [2] organization), and later become victimized by "bait and switch" behavior (e.g. [3]).

Thanks
