<p>In the context of a horizontal community, the word <strong>we</strong> has a different meaning than within not-for-profit organizations or companies. <strong>We</strong> are the individuals who have access to the resources that would enable them to modify how it is implemented. For instance, someone with access to the configuration of the web server can change the log retention policy.</p>
