3 This Code of Conduct is adapted from [Rust's wonderful
4 CoC](http://www.rust-lang.org/conduct.html).
6 * We are committed to providing a friendly, safe and welcoming
7 environment for all, regardless of gender, sexual orientation,
8 disability, ethnicity, religion, or similar personal characteristic.
9 * Please avoid using overtly sexual nicknames or other nicknames that
10 might detract from a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for
12 * Please be kind and courteous. There's no need to be mean or rude.
13 * Respect that some individuals and cultures consider the casual use of
14 profanity offensive and off-putting.
15 * Respect that people have differences of opinion and that every
16 design or implementation choice carries a trade-off and numerous
17 costs. There is seldom a right answer.
18 * Please keep unstructured critique to a minimum. If you have solid
19 ideas you want to experiment with, make a fork and see how it works.
20 * We will exclude you from interaction if you insult, demean or harass
21 anyone. That is not welcome behavior. We interpret the term
22 "harassment" as including the definition in the [Citizen Code of
23 Conduct](http://citizencodeofconduct.org/); if you have any lack of
24 clarity about what might be included in that concept, please read
25 their definition. In particular, we don't tolerate behavior that
26 excludes people in socially marginalized groups.
27 * Private harassment is also unacceptable. No matter who you are, if
28 you feel you have been or are being harassed or made uncomfortable
29 by a community member, please contact one of the channel ops or any
30 of the TSC members immediately with a capture (log, photo, email) of
31 the harassment if possible. Whether you're a regular contributor or
32 a newcomer, we care about making this community a safe place for you
33 and we've got your back.
34 * Likewise any spamming, trolling, flaming, baiting or other
35 attention-stealing behavior is not welcome.
36 * Avoid the use of personal pronouns in code comments or
37 documentation. There is no need to address persons when explaining
38 code (e.g. "When the developer").
