Can my company adopt the Not Bastards standard?
Yes. Teams, independents, institutions and projects can cite, adapt and measure themselves against the Not Bastards standard. Start with the manifesto for makers, a five-minute read that is also a PDF, and the plain-language statement for your users. Adopting it is free. You may cite and link it freely; use the Not Bastards™ name or logo on your product only if you follow all five principles, link to the manifesto and do not suggest that The Convenience Factory certifies you.
