The triplescripts.org group was conceived and is organized around a set of values. Refer to Timmermans's essay Perl7 is a fork of values. There are also parallels between the intentionality of the triplescripts.org group's work and Bret Victor's Inventing on Principle.
Besides some of (what should be) the obvious ones (longevity, reproducibility, scrutability), some of this group's other core principles include:
- end user control
- low-magic systems
- simplicity and ease
There are a number of mantras meant to capture the tao of triple scripts.
