To that end, we have a few ground rules that we ask +people to adhere to. This code applies equally to the core development team, +open source contributors and those seeking help and guidance. + +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 enrich all of +us and the technical communities in which we participate. + +This code of conduct applies to all spaces managed by the Kea project or +Internet Systems Consortium. This includes chat, the mailing lists, the issue +tracker, and any other fora created by the project team which the +community uses for communication. In addition, violations of this code outside +these spaces may affect a person's ability to participate within them. + +If you believe someone is violating the code of conduct, we ask that you report +it by emailing [conduct@isc.org](conduct@isc.org). For more details please see +our [Reporting Guidelines](https://www.isc.org/conductreporting/). + +* **Be friendly and patient.** +* **Be welcoming.** 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, colour, immigration + status, social and economic class, educational level, sex, sexual orientation, + gender identity and expression, age, size, family status, political belief, + religion, and mental and physical ability. +* **Be considerate.** 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 when making + decisions. Remember that we're a world-wide community, so you might not be + communicating in someone else's primary language. +* **Be respectful.** 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 Kea + community should be respectful when dealing with other members as well as with + people outside the Kea community. +* **Be careful in the words that you choose.** We are a community of + professionals, and we conduct ourselves professionally. Be kind to others. Do + not insult or put down other participants. Harassment and other exclusionary + behavior aren't acceptable. This includes, but is not limited to: + * Violent threats or language directed against another person. + * Discriminatory jokes and language. + * Posting sexually explicit or violent material. + * Posting (or threatening to post) other people's personally identifying + information ("doxing"). + * Personal insults, especially those using racist or sexist terms. + * Unwelcome sexual attention. + * Advocating for, or encouraging, any of the above behavior. + * Repeated harassment of others. In general, if someone asks you to stop, then + stop. +* **When we disagree, try to understand why.** Disagreements, both social and + technical, happen all the time and Kea is no exception. It is important + that we resolve disagreements and differing views constructively. Remember + that we're different. The strength of Kea 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. + +Original text courtesy of the [Django Code of Conduct](https://www.djangoproject.com/conduct/) +project. |
