<h2>&os; Community Code of Conduct</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>The &os; community has always worked to be a welcoming and
|
|
respectful community, and we want to ensure that doesn't change
|
|
as we grow and evolve. To that end, we have a few ground rules
|
|
that we ask people to adhere to:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>be friendly and patient,</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>be welcoming,</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>be considerate,</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>be respectful,</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>be careful in the words that you choose and be kind to
|
|
others,</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>when we disagree, try to understand why.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>This isn't an exhaustive list of things that you can't do.
|
|
Rather, take it in the spirit in which it's intended - a guide
|
|
to make it easier to communicate and participate in the
|
|
community.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>This code of conduct applies to all spaces managed by the &os;
|
|
project. This includes online chat, mailing lists, bug trackers,
|
|
&os; events such as the developer meetings and socials, and any
|
|
other forums created by the project that the community uses for
|
|
communication. It applies to all of your communication and
|
|
conduct in these spaces, including emails, chats, things you
|
|
say, slides, videos, posters, signs, or even t-shirts you
|
|
display in these spaces. In addition, violations of this code
|
|
outside these spaces may, in rare cases, affect a person's
|
|
ability to participate within them, when the conduct amounts to
|
|
an egregious violation of this code.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>If you believe someone is violating the code of conduct, we ask
|
|
that you report it by emailing <a
|
|
href="mailto:conduct@freebsd.org">conduct@FreeBSD.org</a>. For
|
|
more details please see our <a
|
|
href="conduct-reporting.html">Reporting Guide</a>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><b>Be friendly and patient.</b></li>
|
|
|
|
<li><b>Be welcoming.</b> We strive to be a community that
|
|
welcomes and supports people of all backgrounds and
|
|
identities. This includes, but is not limited to members of
|
|
any race, ethnicity, culture, national origin, color,
|
|
immigration status, social and economic class, educational
|
|
level, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity and
|
|
expression, age, size, family status, political belief,
|
|
religion or lack thereof, and mental and physical
|
|
ability.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li><b>Be considerate.</b> Your work will be used by other
|
|
people, and you in turn will depend on the work of others. Any
|
|
decision you take will affect users and colleagues, and you
|
|
should take those consequences into account. Remember that
|
|
we're a world-wide community, so you might not be
|
|
communicating in someone else's primary language.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li><b>Be respectful.</b> Not all of us will agree all the time,
|
|
but disagreement is no excuse for poor behavior and poor
|
|
manners. We might all experience some frustration now and
|
|
then, but we cannot allow that frustration to turn into a
|
|
personal attack. It's important to remember that a community
|
|
where people feel uncomfortable or threatened is not a
|
|
productive one. Members of the &os; community should be
|
|
respectful when dealing with other members as well as with
|
|
people outside the &os; community.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li><b>Be careful in the words that you choose and be kind to
|
|
others.</b> Do not insult or put down other participants.
|
|
Harassment and other exclusionary behavior aren't acceptable.
|
|
This includes, but is not limited to:
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Violent threats or language directed against another
|
|
person.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Discriminatory jokes and language.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Posting sexually explicit or violent material.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Posting (or threatening to post) other people's
|
|
personally identifying information ("doxing").</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Personal insults, especially those using racist or
|
|
sexist terms.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Unwelcome sexual attention.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Advocating for, or encouraging, any of the above
|
|
behavior.</li></ul></li>
|
|
|
|
<li><b>In general, if someone asks you to stop, then
|
|
stop.</b> Persisting in such behavior after being asked to
|
|
stop is considered harassment.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li><b>When we disagree, try to understand why.</b>
|
|
Disagreements, both social and technical, happen all the
|
|
time and &os; is no exception. It is important that we
|
|
resolve disagreements and differing views constructively.
|
|
Remember that we're different. The strength of &os; comes
|
|
from its varied community, people from a wide range of
|
|
backgrounds. Different people have different perspectives on
|
|
issues. Being unable to understand why someone holds a
|
|
viewpoint doesn't mean that they're wrong. Don't forget that
|
|
it is human to err and blaming each other doesn't get us
|
|
anywhere. Instead, focus on helping to resolve issues and
|
|
learning from mistakes.</li></ul>
