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 BIND 9 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. For more details please see our +Reporting Guidelines. + + * 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 BIND 9 community should be respectful + when dealing with other members as well as with people outside the + BIND 9 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 BIND 9 is no exception. It is + important that we resolve disagreements and differing views + constructively. Remember that we're different. The strength of BIND 9 + 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 project. |
