libvips Code of Conduct
|
||
=======================
|
||
|
||
libvips, is developed and maintained by a mixed group of professionals and
|
||
volunteers from all over the world.
|
||
|
||
We ask people to adhere to a few ground rules. They apply equally to founders,
|
||
maintainers, contributors and those seeking help and guidance.
|
||
|
||
This is not meant to be an exhaustive list of things you are not allowed to do.
|
||
We rather would like you to think of it as a guide to enrich our community and
|
||
the technical community in general with new knowledge and perspectives by
|
||
allowing everyone to participate.
|
||
|
||
This code of conduct applies to all spaces managed by the libvips
|
||
community. This includes the mailing list, our GitHub projects, face to face
|
||
events, and any other forums created by the community for communication
|
||
within the community. In addition, violations of this code outside these
|
||
spaces may also 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.
|
||
|
||
- **Be friendly and patient.**
|
||
- **Be welcoming.** We strive to be a community that welcomes and supports
|
||
people of all backgrounds.
|
||
- **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
|
||
our community should be respectful when dealing with other members as
|
||
well as with people outside the our 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. It is important that we resolve
|
||
disagreements and differing views constructively. Remember that we’re
|
||
different. The strength of group software development 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 we all make mistakes and blaming each other doesn’t get us
|
||
anywhere. Instead, focus on helping to resolve issues and learning
|
||
from mistakes.
