6 Dancer::Policy - Dancer core and community policy and standards of
7 conduct

10 version 1.3521
11
13 This document describes various policies (most notably, the standards
14 of conduct) for the Dancer core developers and broad community.
15 This is what we expect from our community and ourselves and these are
17 the standards of behavior we set forth in order to make sure the
18 community remains a safe space for all of its members, without
19 exception.
20
22 These standards applies anywhere the community comes together as a
23 group. This includes, but is not limited to, the Dancer IRC channel,
24 the Dancer mailing list, Dancer hackathons, and Dancer conferences.
25 • Always be civil.
27 • Heed the moderators.
29 • Abuse is not tolerated.
31 Civility is simple: stick to the facts while avoiding demeaning remarks
33 and sarcasm. It is not enough to be factual. You must also be civil.
34 Responding in kind to incivility is not acceptable.
35 If the list moderators tell you that you are not being civil, carefully
37 consider how your words have appeared before responding in any way. You
38 may protest, but repeated protest in the face of a repeatedly
39 reaffirmed decision is not acceptable.
40 Unacceptable behavior will result in a public and clearly identified
42 warning. Repeated unacceptable behavior will result in removal from
43 the mailing list and revocation of any commit bit. The first removal is
44 for one month. Subsequent removals will double in length. After six
45 months with no warning, a user's ban length is reset. Removals, like
46 warnings, are public.
47 The list of moderators consists of all active core developers. This
49 includes, in alphabetical order, Alberto Simões, David Precious, Mickey
50 Nasriachi, Russell Jenkins, Sawyer X, Stefan Hornburg (Racke), Steven
51 Humphrey, and Yanick Champoux.
52 This list might additionally grow to active members of the community
54 who have stepped up to help handle abusive behavior. If this should
55 happen, this document would be updated to include their names.
56 Additionally, it's important to understand the self-regulating nature
58 we foster at the Dancer community. This means anyone and everyone in
59 the community - in the channel, on the list, at an event - has the
60 ability to call out unacceptable behavior and incivility to others in
61 the community.
62 Moderators are responsibe for issuing warnings and take disciplenary
64 actions, but anyone may - and is encouraged - to publicly make note of
65 unacceptable treatment of others.
66 As a core principle, abuse is never tolerated. One cannot berate,
68 insult, debase, deride, put-down, or vilify anyone, or act towards
69 anyone in a way intending to hurt them.
70 The community specifically considers as abuse any attempts to otherize
72 anyone, whether by their technical skill, knowledge, gender, sexual
73 orientation, or any other characteristic.
74 The community aims to maintain a safe space for everyone, in any forum
76 it has. If you ever feel this core principle has been compromised, you
77 are strongly urged to contact a moderator. We are always here.
78 Remember, this is your community, as much as it is anyone else's.

82 This policy has been adopted and adapted from the policy available for
83 the Perl language development, provided by p5p (the Perl 5 Porters).
