Contributors of free software projects are not generally expected a minimum level of performance.
However, maintaining infrastructure is a job of high responsibility. The fact that you're not being
paid does not mean that it's OK to abandon your post without notice!
 
If you choose to maintain or co-maintain a piece of the Sugar Labs infrastructure, you agree to:
 
* Assume '''full personal responsibility''' for the performance and security of your service
* Take reasonable steps to '''avoid the risk of data loss and downtime'''
* Keep the corresponding [[Service]] or [[Machine]] documentation page up to date
* Try to '''respond quickly''' to problems reported by users
* When you no longer have time, '''step down responsibly''': find a new maintainer and help them take over your duties smoothly
* If that is not possible, clearly announce that the service is being discontinued and '''help cleanup''' all resources used by it.
 
Remember, ''"with great power comes great responsibility!"'' -- [http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Spider-Man_(movie)#Peter_Parker.2FSpider-Man Peter Parker]
