THIS IS WORK IN PROGRESS
A social opinion includes any kind of political, religious or gender specific statement. This also includes ANY statements about ANY collaborator that is not technically relevant to the project. A social opinion also includes ANY feelings about ANY collaborator (including yourself). ANY response to ANY social opinion is by definition a social opinion.
Examples of social opinions: gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, personal appearance, body size, race, ethnicity, age, religion, or nationality.
Everyone who contribute or try to contribute to the project.
Everyone who has merge access.
The project includes ANY work that is related to the project. The project also includes ANY public communication about the project.
Every violation note is limited to just this statement: ;i-feel-bad-and-coc-saves-me;[E-MAIL OF THE COLLABORATOR YOU FEEL ATTACKED BY];
Violation notes MUST NOT contain ANY kind of explanations about the violation.
For non supervisors: Every violation note MUST come with an E-Mail (at least 12h after adding the violation note) to coc@[project.org]. The E-Mail MUST at least contain:
By sending the E-Mail you agree that a supervisor CAN (NOT MUST) contact you. Every supervisor IS ALLOWED to share your explanation with the attacker and the community.
Project related work MUST NOT contain any social opinion.
Everyone who interacts with the project CAN be addressed (in the context of the project) using "he", "she" AND "it". Every usage of any gender/pronoun is correct at any time regardless of the gender the addressed feels like.
For example these sentences are valid to address any collaborator at any time: I think his code doesn't work as expected. I think her code doesn't work as expected. I think its code doesn't work as expected.
The order of any gender / pronoun doesn't matter. We believe that no collaborator is a more or less good collaborator.
Everyone who interacts the project MUST respect the freedom of any project collaborator. Every collaborator is free to share it's opinion (including social opinion) WITHOUT ANY restriction. It's NOT ALLOWED to share any social opinions, in the context of the project. Even if you feel like a victim.
We believe that ignoring any kind of social statements is the best way avoid non technical conflicts between collaborators.
Any kind of personal attack is NOT ALLOWED. It's fine to not agree with a collaborator. It's NOT ALLOWED to note ANY kind of social opinion to ANY collaborator. Argue for and against an idea is a constructive contribution but MUST NOT contain any social opinion.
Every topic that is not directly related to the project is NOT ALLOWED. Non technical conflicts MUST be discussed in a separate space.
Collaborators MUST NOT share any non technical ideas (especially no social opinions) in the name of the project. The Project MUST NOT share non-technical ideas or values.
To avoid talking past each other, every collaborator MUST ensure writing in a non ambiguous way.
Collaborators MUST NOT take any kind of advice on other Collaborators. It is NOT ALLOWED to tell any collaborator what he/she/it has to do.
Examples of NOT ALLOWED advice: You should read this blog post. You would understand it, if you would read this blog post.
Both of this sentences could be rewritten this way: The idea i mentioned is described in this blog post.
The code of conduct MUST only be discussed here: Disturbing the project is NOT ALLOWED.
If YOU feel affected by a violation against the code of conduct you're LIMITED TO:
Supervisors are ALLOWED to:
If a supervisor removed your code of conduct note or decided that there is no code of conduct violation, you MUST NOT add another note related to the same topic.
You MUST NOT discuss any decision of any supervisor related to the code of conduct. If you don't feel well on the decision of a supervisor, feel free to ask for a private chat.
