<h2>About the Code of Conduct</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>Why have a Code of Conduct?</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Online communities include people from many different backgrounds.
|
||||
The Go contributors are committed to providing a friendly, safe and welcoming
|
||||
environment for all, regardless of age, disability, gender, nationality, race,
|
||||
religion, sexuality, or similar personal characteristic.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
The first goal of the Code of Conduct is to specify a baseline standard
|
||||
of behavior so that people with different social values and communication
|
||||
styles can talk about Go effectively, productively, and respectfully.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
The second goal is to provide a mechanism for resolving conflicts in the
|
||||
community when they arise.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
The third goal of the Code of Conduct is to make our community welcoming to
|
||||
people from different backgrounds.
|
||||
Diversity is critical to the project; for Go to be successful, it needs
|
||||
contributors and users from all backgrounds.
|
||||
(See <a href="https://blog.golang.org/open-source">Go, Open Source, Community</a>.)
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
With that said, a healthy community must allow for disagreement and debate.
|
||||
The Code of Conduct is not a mechanism for people to silence others with whom
|
||||
they disagree.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>Where does the Code of Conduct apply?</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
If you participate in or contribute to the Go ecosystem in any way,
|
||||
you are encouraged to follow the Code of Conduct while doing so.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Explicit enforcement of the Code of Conduct applies to the
|
||||
official forums operated by the Go project (“Go spaces”):
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>The official <a href="https://github.com/golang/">GitHub projects</a>
|
||||
and <a href="https://go-review.googlesource.com/">code reviews</a>.
|
||||
<li>The <a href="https://groups.google.com/group/golang-nuts">golang-nuts</a> and
|
||||
<a href="https://groups.google.com/group/golang-dev">golang-dev</a> mailing lists.
|
||||
<li>The #go-nuts IRC channel on Freenode.
|
||||
<li>The <a href="https://reddit.com/r/golang">/r/golang subreddit</a>.
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Other Go groups (such as conferences, meetups, and other unofficial forums) are
|
||||
encouraged to adopt this Code of Conduct. Those groups must provide their own
|
||||
moderators and/or working group (see below).
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Gopher values</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
These are the values to which people in the Go community (“Gophers”) should aspire.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Be friendly and welcoming
|
||||
<li>Be patient
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Remember that people have varying communication styles and that not
|
||||
everyone is using their native language.
|
||||
(Meaning and tone can be lost in translation.)
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<li>Be thoughtful
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Productive communication requires effort.
|
||||
Think about how your words will be interpreted.
|
||||
<li>Remember that sometimes it is best to refrain entirely from commenting.
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<li>Be respectful
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>In particular, respect differences of opinion.
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<li>Be charitable
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Interpret the arguments of others in good faith, do not seek to disagree.
|
||||
<li>When we do disagree, try to understand why.
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<li>Avoid destructive behavior:
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Derailing: stay on topic; if you want to talk about something else,
|
||||
start a new conversation.
|
||||
<li>Unconstructive criticism: don't merely decry the current state of affairs;
|
||||
offer—or at least solicit—suggestions as to how things may be improved.
|
||||
<li>Snarking (pithy, unproductive, sniping comments)
|
||||
<li>Discussing potentially offensive or sensitive issues;
|
||||
this all too often leads to unnecessary conflict.
|
||||
<li>Microaggressions: brief and commonplace verbal, behavioral and
|
||||
environmental indignities that communicate hostile, derogatory or negative
|
||||
slights and insults to a person or group.
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
People are complicated.
|
||||
You should expect to be misunderstood and to misunderstand others;
|
||||
when this inevitably occurs, resist the urge to be defensive or assign blame.
|
||||
Try not to take offense where no offense was intended.
|
||||
Give people the benefit of the doubt.
|
||||
Even if the intent was to provoke, do not rise to it.
|
||||
It is the responsibility of <i>all parties</i> to de-escalate conflict when it arises.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Unwelcome behavior</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
These actions are explicitly forbidden in Go spaces:
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Insulting, demeaning, hateful, or threatening remarks.
|
||||
<li>Discrimination based on age, disability, gender, nationality, race,
|
||||
religion, sexuality, or similar personal characteristic.
|
||||
<li>Bullying or systematic harassment.
|
||||
<li>Unwelcome sexual advances.
|
||||
<li>Incitement to any of these.
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Moderation</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
The Go spaces are not free speech venues; they are for discussion about Go.
|
||||
These spaces have moderators.
|
||||
The goal of the moderators is to facilitate civil discussion about Go.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
When using the official Go spaces you should act in the spirit of the “Gopher
|
||||
values”.
|
||||
If you conduct yourself in a way that is explicitly forbidden by the CoC,
|
||||
you will be warned and asked to stop.
|
||||
If you do not stop, you will be removed from our community spaces temporarily.
|
||||
Repeated, wilful breaches of the CoC will result in a permanent ban.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Moderators are held to a higher standard than other community members.
|
||||
If a moderator creates an inappropriate situation, they should expect less
|
||||
leeway than others, and should expect to be removed from their position if they
|
||||
cannot adhere to the CoC.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Complaints about moderator actions must be handled using the reporting process
|
||||
below.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Reporting issues</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
The Code of Conduct Working Group is a group of people that represent the Go
|
||||
community. They are responsible for handling conduct-related issues.
|
||||
Their purpose is to de-escalate conflicts and try to resolve issues to the
|
||||
satisfaction of all parties. They are:
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Aditya Mukerjee <dev@chimeracoder.net>
|
||||
<li>Andrew Gerrand <adg@golang.org>
|
||||
<li>Dave Cheney <dave@cheney.net>
|
||||
<li>Jason Buberel <jbuberel@google.com>
|
||||
<li>Peggy Li <peggyli.224@gmail.com>
|
||||
<li>Sarah Adams <sadams.codes@gmail.com>
|
||||
<li>Steve Francia <steve.francia@gmail.com>
|
||||
<li>Verónica López <gveronicalg@gmail.com>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
If you encounter a conduct-related issue, you should report it to the
|
||||
Working Group using the process described below.
|
||||
<b>Do not</b> post about the issue publicly or try to rally sentiment against a
|
||||
particular individual or group.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Mail <a href="mailto:conduct@golang.org">conduct@golang.org</a> or
|
||||
<a href="https://golang.org/s/conduct-report">submit an anonymous report</a>.
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Your message will reach the Working Group.
|
||||
<li>Reports are confidential within the Working Group.
|
||||
<li>Should you choose to remain anonymous then the Working Group cannot
|
||||
notify you of the outcome of your report.
|
||||
<li>You may contact a member of the group directly if you do not feel
|
||||
comfortable contacting the group as a whole. That member will then raise
|
||||
the issue with the Working Group as a whole, preserving the privacy of the
|
||||
reporter (if desired).
|
||||
<li>If your report concerns a member of the Working Group they will be recused
|
||||
from Working Group discussions of the report.
|
||||
<li>The Working Group will strive to handle reports with discretion and
|
||||
sensitivity, to protect the privacy of the involved parties,
|
||||
and to avoid conflicts of interest.
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<li>You should receive a response within 48 hours (likely sooner).
|
||||
(Should you choose to contact a single Working Group member,
|
||||
it may take longer to receive a response.)
|
||||
<li>The Working Group will meet to review the incident and determine what happened.
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>With the permission of person reporting the incident, the Working Group
|
||||
may reach out to other community members for more context.
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<li>The Working Group will reach a decision as to how to act. These may include:
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Nothing.
|
||||
<li>A request for a private or public apology.
|
||||
<li>A private or public warning.
|
||||
<li>An imposed vacation (for instance, asking someone to abstain for a week
|
||||
from a mailing list or IRC).
|
||||
<li>A permanent or temporary ban from some or all Go spaces.
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<li>The Working Group will reach out to the original reporter to let them know
|
||||
the decision.
|
||||
<li>Appeals to the decision may be made to the Working Group,
|
||||
or to any of its members directly.
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
<b>Note that the goal of the Code of Conduct and the Working Group is to resolve
|
||||
conflicts in the most harmonious way possible.</b>
|
||||
We hope that in most cases issues may be resolved through polite discussion and
|
||||
mutual agreement.
|
||||
Bannings and other forceful measures are to be employed only as a last resort.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
Changes to the Code of Conduct (including to the members of the Working Group)
|
||||
