NAME¶
Dancer2::Policy - Dancer core and community policy and standards of conduct
VERSION¶
version 0.152000
DESCRIPTION¶
This document describes various policies (most notably, the standards of
conduct) for the Dancer core developers and broad community.
This is what we expect from our community and ourselves and these are the
standards of behavior we set forth in order to make sure the community remains
a safe space for all of its members, without exception.
STANDARDS OF CONDUCT¶
These standards applies anywhere the community comes together as a group. This
includes, but is not limited to, the Dancer IRC channel, the Dancer mailing
list, Dancer hackathons, and Dancer conferences.
- •
- Always be civil.
- •
- Heed the moderators.
- •
- Abuse is not tolerated.
Civility is simple: stick to the facts while avoiding demeaning remarks and
sarcasm. It is not enough to be factual. You must also be civil. Responding in
kind to incivility is not acceptable.
If the list moderators tell you that you are not being civil, carefully consider
how your words have appeared before responding in any way. You may protest,
but repeated protest in the face of a repeatedly reaffirmed decision is not
acceptable.
Unacceptable behavior will result in a public and clearly identified warning.
Repeated unacceptable behavior will result in removal from the mailing list
and revocation of any commit bit. The first removal is for one month.
Subsequent removals will double in length. After six months with no warning, a
user's ban length is reset. Removals, like warnings, are public.
The list of moderators consists of all active core developers. This includes, in
alphabetical order, Alberto Simo~es, David Precious, Mickey Nasriachi, Russell
Jenkins, Sawyer X, Stefan Hornburg (Racke), Steven Humphrey, and Yanick
Champoux.
This list might additionally grow to active members of the community who have
stepped up to help handle abusive behavior. If this should happen, this
document would be updated to include their names.
Additionally, it's important to understand the self-regulating nature we foster
at the Dancer community. This means anyone and everyone in the community - in
the channel, on the list, at an event - has the ability to call out
unacceptable behavior and incivility to others in the community.
Moderators are responsibe for issuing warnings and take disciplenary actions,
but anyone may - and is encouraged - to publicly make note of unacceptable
treatment of others.
As a core principle, abuse is never tolerated. One cannot berate, insult,
debase, deride, put-down, or vilify anyone, or act towards anyone in a way
intending to hurt them.
The community specifically considers as abuse any attempts to otherize anyone,
whether by their technical skill, knowledge, gender, sexual orientation, or
any other characteristic.
The community aims to maintain a safe space for everyone, in any forum it has.
If you ever feel this core principle has been compromised, you are strongly
urged to contact a moderator. We are always here.
Remember, this is
your community, as much as it is anyone else's.
