We are in the process of fully setting up this instance! We have established a basic set of norms and policies to let us open registration, but everything about this instance is in a period of negotiation -- including any existing policies we have set! As an early member of the neuromatch instance, we want to build a culture of cooperative governance, and so we encourage you to ask questions and make proposals for how you want the instance to run. We will update this section with further asks as we continue to stand up the instance :).
