Contributions from anyone are welcome, and should be encouraged. + Where criticism or correction is needed, try to make it respectful, + constructive, supportive and positive. + +1. Contributors should act in the best interest of the community and of + the Kodi project. + +1. We're all volunteers -- people will give whatever time and effort + they wish to. No-one should be made to do anything they don't want + to. + +1. Discrimination, harassment, threatening/bullying behaviour, trolling + or insulting/derogatory language will not be tolerated in any form + via any Kodi channel or site. + +1. Respect the contribution and efforts of others -- treat them as + you'd like them to treat you. + +1. Publication and sharing of confidential information, both relating + to Kodi and to individual's personal data, is only by explicit permission + of the relevant information owner and person(s) concerned, as applicable. + +1. Work on Kodi is a team effort. + Individual contributions are highly appreciated and to be respected, + but they do not empower those contributors to make decisions + affecting the overall management of the project. + +1. If you are a team member, you may have the title of "Team Kodi Member" + (or variants thereof) in environments like the Kodi forum. You are of + course free to state your own opinions on topics, but for more + controversial ones, please ensure to explicitly state that what you + post is your own opinion and not that of the team or the project. + +1. Discussions, debate and disagreement are a natural part of a working + team. Account should be taken though for the impersonal nature of + internet discussions, and for things like language and cultural + norms. Don't be too quick to assume ill intent or to take offense, + and respect people's boundaries and feelings. + +1. Where you can, be helpful to fellow contributors and share your + knowledge and skills. We all have to start somewhere, and they may + be able to return the favour later or contribute more fully as a + result. + +1. No-one is perfect -- tolerate honest mistakes that may be made, + learn from them and help to repair them when you can. And if they're + yours, be honest about them and apologise. + +1. Submitted code and other important documentation will be peer + reviewed. Comments, suggestions and constructive criticism should be + taken with good grace and not as a slight or insult to the work and + effort put in. + +1. There is an over-riding principle that accepted work, postings or commits + should not be reverted, edited or otherwise rejected without discussion + with the original author. + + Recognising that changes do sometimes need to be made (for example, code + commits which break master compilation or simple typos that shouldn't be + left and forgotten), a reasonable attempt - reflecting the spirit of the + change/reversion - should be made to liaise with the original author prior + to making any modifications. If this isn't practical, it is considered good + practice to appropriately peer review any potential changes prior to + application to minimise risks of further breakage. + +1. In case of dispute the working group or the board should be asked + to mediate. + +## **Scope:** + +- This code covers all services supplied by and used by Team Kodi, + such as: + + - The official GitHub repos. + + - The Kodi forum. + + - The Kodi wiki. + + - The Kodi Slack and IRC channels. + + - Official Kodi social media channels. + + - Devcon. + +- Anyone who contributes to the Kodi project on any of these channels + is expected to abide by this code. + +## **Enforcement:** + +- Violations of this code which cannot be dealt with by simple + discussion should be reported to the working group via conduct@kodi.tv . + The group will then review the issue and mediate between the parties involved. + +- The identity of the reporter and where appropriate the nature of the issue + should remain confidential and be handled with care and sensitivity. + +- The procedure upon receiving a report should be: + + 1. The group should review the report, and any member directly + involved or having a vested interest in the outcome should + recuse themselves. + + 1. Any public disputes or discussions should be brought to a close + with a clear statement that the issue is under review, and that + any further 3rd party comment should be directed to the group + via the group email address. + + 1. All individuals concerned with the issue will be contacted + privately and an attempt made to clarify their individual + viewpoints and concerns. Particular emphasis on identifying and + resolving any misunderstandings, mistranslations or + misinterpretations will be made. + + 1. In case of such identifications, the group will attempt to + mediate between the parties involved to resolve the problem if + possible. + + 1. The behaviour of all parties involved will be reviewed, and in + cases where the code has been broken (e.g. harassment, + discrimination or aggression) further action will be discussed + against the individual(s) concerned. + + 1. This action will depend on the severity of the transgression and + on the history of the individual. Some guidelines for + appropriate measures for team members are: + + - First offence -- a warning. + + - Second offence -- loss of privileges for a week. + + - Third offence -- loss of privileges for a month. + + - Fourth offence -- permanent revoking of privileges. + + - Final offence -- banning from all Kodi services. + + - Privileges will depend on the nature of the issue, but may + include team membership, GitHub repo push access, forum + moderator powers, wiki account access and social media + account access. + + For individuals that are not members of Team Kodi, there are no + privileges that could be revoked. Appropriate measures therefore + include warnings and revoking access to services such as the + forum or the `xbmc` organization on GitHub temporarily or + permanently. + +## **Stakeholders:** + +- *Kodi Foundation Board* -- the elected five directors and management + of the XBMC Foundation. + +- *Working Group* -- the team assigned by the board to create this + document and to oversee its administration. + +- *Contributors* -- volunteers who give input into the upkeep and + improvement of Kodi and its community, be they Team Members or + interested third parties. This includes both code and posts made to + the forum, the wiki or on official social media channels. + +## **Related Documents:** + +- [Forum rules](https://kodi.wiki/view/Official:Forum_rules) +- [Moderation rules (the basics)](https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/blob/master/docs/codeofconduct/ModerationRules.md) +- [Moderator guidelines](https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/blob/master/docs/codeofconduct/ModeratorGuidelines.md) +- [Forum banning code of conduct](https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/blob/master/docs/codeofconduct/ForumUserBanning.md) \ No newline at end of file -- cgit v1.2.3
