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