I. Nature of China DOS Union
China DOS Union is a non-political, non-economic loose volunteer organization established spontaneously by DOS enthusiasts依托 the Internet. It is composed of all participating members (individuals and personal websites), aiming to study, promote, and develop DOS.
"China" here refers to a broad, non-political or regional concept. We welcome any DOS enthusiasts who use or understand Chinese. Of course, using non-Chinese languages is allowed as long as it does not interfere with communication.
The China DOS Union Forum is the central base for the activities of union members. Basically, all registered members of the forum are regarded as participating members.

II. Goals of China DOS Union
The goal of the DOS Union is to publicize, promote, and drive the development of DOS in the Chinese-speaking world. Finally, it aims to promote the development of computer applications and levels among Chinese people and make computers better serve our national interests. The China DOS Union does not exclude any non-DOS operating systems or any non-Chinese languages.

III. Relationship between the Union and Members
The relationship between the union and participating members (individuals or websites) is a loose cooperative relationship rather than a general subordinate relationship.
The union never seeks economic interests, and does not allow participating members to seek illegal economic interests or infringe upon the legitimate rights and interests of others. It does not allow members to have words and deeds that violate laws and traditional morals. Members who seriously violate principles will be expelled and condemned. However, since the union does not have real binding force on members, the union does not make any form of commitment or guarantee for the actions of any participating member at any time.

IV. Political and Legal Issues Related to Union Members
The China DOS Union is a non-political organization and does not seek any political interests, which is for security considerations.
The union does not interfere with the political stance of any member or non-member, and does not require members to agree or disagree with certain political views in any way (explicitly or implicitly).
Therefore, for the security reasons of the union, especially the forum, we require that members' posts must not violate the laws and regulations of mainland China, and participating websites must not publish politically-related articles that seriously violate the laws and regulations of mainland China.
We very much hope that the DOS Union can achieve the goals in the second point. However, the primary condition is that it has to exist first. Please understand this, friends.

V. Code of Conduct among Members
In the China DOS Union, all members are equal. Members should respect and understand each other.
The moderators of the forum are served by enthusiastic enthusiasts, who voluntarily undertake various management work of the forum. Members who have any objections to the behavior of moderators can express their opinions in the specific community (Site Announcements & Moderator Discussion).
Members who have the following behaviors will be regarded as unwelcome. Those who are serious will be subject to post deletion, criticism, ID blocking, etc.
① Using uncivilized, immoral, or vulgar, rude language, using dirty words randomly, and refusing to accept criticism and correct.
② Publishing articles and posts that seriously contradict the laws and regulations of mainland China, which may endanger the security of the forum or even the union.
③ Using seriously insulting or discriminatory words against other members, or randomly attacking and abusing other members, causing disunity.
④ Deliberately using dialect words to boast oneself, promoting localism, etc., with the suspicion of seriously insulting or discriminating against other members.
⑤ Posting too many and messy posts randomly, wasting resources.
⑥ Moderators misusing management power, deliberately targeting and suppressing other members.
⑦ Using various methods to seek improper political or economic interests for oneself by relying on the union, and damaging the reputation of the union.
⑧ Other behaviors that may endanger the security of the union and the forum or cause division.

VI. DOS Union and Copyright
The union acknowledges that it has cited materials or software without its own copyright, but declares that it is not used for commercial purposes. If you think that the union or participating members have infringed your copyright by citing your software or materials, please inform the union. The union (or participating members) will delete them as soon as possible.
For the software or materials with the union's own copyright, other individuals or websites are welcome to cite them, but it is necessary to indicate the source.

VII. Management of DOS Union (This has never been implemented, but will not be changed for the time being)
The management of the union adopts the way of council management. 5-10 members are selected from participating individual members as council members, who are responsible for the management and operation of the union. The council will handle divergent opinions according to the principle of minority yielding to majority. Council members are re-elected by members every year.

VIII. Other Supplements
The DOS Union welcomes individuals, units, etc. to provide non-monetary sponsorships such as website space, FTP space, message boards, forums for the union or members.
