These materials are reasoning scaffolds. They are meant to support judgment, documentation, critique, and revision — not to certify that a decision is ethical.
Quick individual use
For fast ethical scans and deciding whether a situation should stay in fast mode or shift to slow review.
Decisions and teams
For documenting decision reasoning and mapping where awareness, power, authority, answerability, and repair obligations sit.
Pilots and facilitation
For testing PF in practice, recording learning signals, and guiding structured discussion without forcing premature consensus.

Older versions are kept as historical context.
PF v2.0 is the current public framework version. Earlier materials may be useful for transparency, version history, and understanding how the project changed over time.
Version history
If older manifesto or v1.1 materials are still available, treat them as archive material rather than the current framework.
Use these materials as scaffolds, not as proof.
PF materials are intended to support reasoning, critique, documentation, facilitation, piloting, and revision. They should not be presented as certification, compliance proof, moral clearance, or a substitute for domain expertise.
When reusing, adapting, translating, or excerpting PF materials, include attribution, version information, and a note about what changed.
