Cohousing-L Mailing List: communication guidelines

[Elana (ekann]

Hi, I'm wondering if any cohousing communities have developed a set of
guidelines or standards for respectful communication among residents. It
seems like it could be helpful at times to spell out our minimal
expectations, so that we are able to say something like, "When you can
follow our guidelines we'll be glad to listen to what you have to say." I'd
love to see what others have come up with, and how well it works in
practice.
