We admired Atlassian's acceptable use policy so much that we've borrowed most of it here. 

We want the OpenRadioss community to be able to use the community development tools, including mailing lists, websites, instant messaging, etc., without interruptions or snags.  We need your help to make it work smoothly.  To that end, we have provided this page describing how we'd like you to use the tools.  We reserve the right to remove anything which does not adhere to our policy.  We describe general guidelines that should show the spirit in which we want to operate, and it's the spirit that we care about.  So, if something technically follows the guidelines, but violates the spirit, we may remove it.  Use your judgment and keep things in perspective.
