The Federation of Egalitarian Communities maintains an archive of policies 
from some of its member communities, called Systems & Structures, at 
http://thefec.org/sns/.  Most of the documents there are rather out of 
date, and the FEC communities are a specific group of income-sharing 
intentional communities, but you might still find something of interest.

Also i have a bunch of items posted on my website www.treegroup.info that 
are useful for training in group process skills.

And Diana Christian (communities [at] ic.org) would be a great person to 
contact, she has lots of handouts that she uses in her workshops on how to 
start an intentional community.

Thanks for your interest in making such resources available, the more the 
better!

Cheers,

--Tree
