Code of Conduct
================================================================================
This code of conduct governs how we behave in any GDAL forum or event and
whenever we will be judged by our actions. We expect it to be honored by everyone
who participates in the GDAL community formally or informally, or claims any
affiliation with the project.
Introduction
-------------
This code of conduct governs how we behave in any GDAL forum or event and
whenever we will be judged by our actions. We expect it to be honored by
everyone who participates in the GDAL community formally or informally, or
claims any affiliation with the GDAL project.
It applies to in-person events (such as conferences and related social events),
IRC, public and private mailing lists, the issue tracker, the wiki, blogs,
Twitter, and any other forums which the community uses for communication and
interactions.
This code is not exhaustive or complete. It serves to distill our common
understanding of a collaborative, shared environment and goals. We expect it to
be followed in spirit as much as in the letter, so that it can enrich all of
us and the technical communities in which we participate.
Diversity Statement
-------------------
GDAL welcomes and encourages participation by everyone. We are committed to
being a community that everyone feels good about joining, and we will always
work to treat everyone well. No matter how you identify yourself or how others
perceive you: we welcome you.
Specific Guidelines
We strive to:
- Be open.
We invite anyone to participate in our community. We preferably use public
methods of communication for project-related messages, unless discussing
something sensitive. This applies to messages for help or project-related
support, too; not only is a public support request much more likely to result
in an answer to a question, it also makes sure that any inadvertent mistakes
made by people answering will be more easily detected and corrected.
- Be empathetic, welcoming, friendly, and patient.
We work together to resolve conflict, assume good intentions, and do our best
to act in an empathetic fashion. We may all experience some frustration from
time to time, but we do not allow frustration to turn into a personal attack.
A community where people feel uncomfortable or threatened is not a productive
one. Note that we have a multi-cultural, multi-lingual community and some of
us are non-native speakers. We should be respectful when dealing with other
community members as well as with people outside our community.
- Be collaborative.
Our work will be used by other people, and in turn we will depend on the work
of others. When we make something for the benefit of GDAL, we are willing to
explain to others how it works, so that they can build on the work to make it
even better. Any decision we make will affect users and colleagues, and we
take those consequences seriously when making decisions.
- Be inquisitive.
Nobody knows everything! Asking questions early avoids many problems later,
so questions are encouraged, though they may be directed to the appropriate
forum. Those who are asked should be responsive and helpful, within the
context of our shared goal of improving GDAL.
- Be careful in the words that we choose.
Whether we are participating as professionals or volunteers, we value
professionalism in all interactions, and take responsibility for our own
speech. Be kind to others. Do not insult or put down other participants.
- Be concise.
Keep in mind that what you write once will be read by hundreds of persons.
Writing a short email means people can understand the conversation as
efficiently as possible. Short emails should always strive to be empathetic,
welcoming, friendly and patient. When a long explanation is necessary,
consider adding a summary.
Try to bring new ideas to a conversation so that each mail adds something
unique to the thread, keeping in mind that the rest of the thread still
contains the other messages with arguments that have already been made.
Try to stay on topic, especially in discussions that are already fairly large.
- Step down considerately.
Members of every project come and go. When somebody leaves or disengages
from the project they should tell people they are leaving and take the proper
steps to ensure that others can pick up where they left off. In doing so,
they should remain respectful of those who continue to participate in the
project and should not misrepresent the project's goals or achievements.
Likewise, community members should respect any individual's choice to leave
the project.
Anti-Harassment
---------------
Harassment and other exclusionary behavior are not acceptable.
This includes, but is not limited to:
- Personal insults or discriminatory jokes and language, especially those using racist or sexist terms.
- Offensive comments, excessive or unnecessary profanity.
- Intimidation, violent threats or demands.
- Sustained disruption of sessions or events.
- Stalking, harassing photography or recording.
- Unwelcome physical contact or sexual attention.
- Repeated harassment of others. In general, if someone asks you to stop, then stop.
- Posting (or threatening to post) other people's personally identifying information ("doxing").
- Sharing private content, such as emails sent privately or non-publicly, or unlogged forums such as IRC channel history.
- Advocating for, or encouraging, any of the above behavior.
Reporting Guidelines
--------------------
If you believe someone is breaking this code of conduct, you may reply to them,
and point to this code of conduct. Such messages may be in public or in private,
whatever is most appropriate. Assume good faith; it is more likely that
participants are unaware of their bad behavior than that they intentionally try
to degrade the quality of the discussion. Should there be difficulties in
dealing with the situation, you may report your concerns to event staff, a forum
leader or the GDAL Board. Serious or persistent offenders may be expelled from
the event or forum by event organizers or forum leaders.
To privately email the code of conduct committee leadership use coc@osgeo.org.
