Re: Code of Conduct: Is it time? (WIP CoC)

Thanks Joshua for creating this list. Great starting point and hopefully points to focus on to conclude this thread.

Here are my humble comments on them.

I think point two is already covered by respecting other people's opinion. At times specially over email ,where we
don'tsee others reactions , people can unintentionally be more confrontational than normal. Therefore it is not just
therecipient.  

Perhaps Point 3 should read "free from".

Thanks again Joshua.

Best Regards


Farjad

Hello,

Below please find a WIP CoC for the PostgreSQL.Org project:

PostgreSQL Global Development Group (PGDG) Code of Conduct (CoC):

1. The CoC is to provide community guidelines for creating and enforcing a safe, respectful, productive, and
collaborativeplace for any person who is willing to contribute in a safe, respectful, productive and collaborative way. 

2. The CoC is not about being offended. The act of being offended is purely a recipient response and usually the
offendedindividual is more interested in being a victim than moving forward. 

3. A safe, respectful, productive and collaborative environment is free comments related to gender, sexual orientation,
disability,physical appearance, body size or race. 

4. Any sustained disruption of the collaborative space (mailing lists, IRC etc..) or other PostgreSQL events shall be
construedas a violation of the CoC and appropriate action will be taken by the CoC committee. 

5. The CoC is only about interaction with the PostgreSQL community. Your private and public lives outside of the
PostgreSQLcommunity are your own. 

6. The CoC is not about Social Justice.


Sincerely,

JD
