title: Code of conduct
|

|
## Introduction
|
|
|
|
This Code of Conduct is a collaborative, evolving document that attempts to
|
|
transparently set out a public set of standards regarding appropriate conduct
|
|
in the Qubes OS Project. It is *not* intended to be a statement or endorsement,
|
|
whether implicit or explicit, of any particular political or philosophical
|
|
attitude, belief, or way of living. Rather, it is an attempt to find a
|
|
reasonable middle ground among the inevitable disagreements regarding free
|
|
expression that arise in a large, diverse community of people from around the
|
|
world. It is intended to be a practical means of serving the best interests of
|
|
our users, contributors, and the project itself. We welcome you to view the
|
|
[history of
|
|
changes](https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-doc/commits/master/about/code-of-conduct.md)
|
|
to this document and the
|
|
[discussion](https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/2163) leading to
|
|
its creation.
|
|
|
|
## Our Pledge
|
|
|
|
The Qubes OS project creates a reasonably secure OS. In the interest of
|
|
fostering an open and welcoming environment, we as contributors and maintainers
|
|
pledge to make participation in our project and our community a harassment-free
|
|
experience for everyone, regardless of age, body size, disability, ethnicity,
|
|
gender identity and expression, level of experience, nationality, personal
|
|
appearance, race, religion, sexual identity and orientation, or other
|
|
characteristic.
|
|
|
|
## Our Standards
|
|
|
|
Examples of behavior that contributes to creating a positive environment
|
|
include:
|
|
|
|
- Using welcoming and inclusive language
|
|
- Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences
|
|
- Gracefully accepting constructive criticism
|
|
- Focusing on what is best for the community
|
|
- Showing empathy towards other community members
|
|
|
|
Examples of unacceptable behavior by participants include:
|
|
|
|
- The use of sexualized language or imagery and unwelcome sexual attention or
|
|
advances
|
|
- Trolling, insulting/derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
|
|
- Reinforcing stereotypical models for illustration of non-technical users
|
|
(e.g. our mothers/grandmothers, etc.)
|
|
- Public or private harassment, as defined by the [Citizen Code of
|
|
Conduct](http://citizencodeofconduct.org/)
|
|
- Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or electronic
|
|
address, without explicit permission
|
|
- Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a
|
|
professional setting
|
|
|
|
(Please also see our [discussion guidelines](/support/#discussion-guidelines).)
|
|
|
|
## Our Responsibilities
|
|
|
|
Project maintainers are responsible for clarifying the standards of acceptable
|
|
behavior and are expected to take appropriate and fair corrective action in
|
|
response to any instances of unacceptable behavior. This action can include
|
|
removing, editing, or rejecting comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues,
|
|
and other contributions, or to ban temporarily or permanently any contributor
|
|
for other behaviors that they deem inappropriate, threatening, offensive, or
|
|
harmful.
|
|
|
|
## Scope
|
|
|
|
This Code of Conduct applies both within project spaces and in public spaces
|
|
when an individual is representing the project or its community. Examples of
|
|
representing a project or community include using an official project e-mail
|
|
address, posting via an official social media account, or acting as an
|
|
appointed representative at an online or offline event. Representation of a
|
|
project may be further defined and clarified by project maintainers.
|
|
|
|
## Enforcement
|
|
|
|
Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
|
|
reported by contacting the project CoC team at `mods@qubes-os.org`. The project
|
|
CoC team is the [Marek
|
|
Marczykowski-Górecki](/team/#marek-marczykowski-g%C3%B3recki), [Andrew David
|
|
Wong](/team/#andrew-david-wong), and [Michael Carbone](/team/#michael-carbone).
|
|
All complaints will be reviewed and investigated and will result in a response
|
|
that is deemed necessary and appropriate to the circumstances. The project team
|
|
is obligated to maintain confidentiality with regard to the reporter of an
|
|
incident, and will ensure reporter, reported and all others impacted are
|
|
regularly updated through the process. Further details of specific enforcement
|
|
policies may be posted separately.
|
|
|
|
Project maintainers who do not follow or enforce the Code of Conduct in good
|
|
faith may face temporary or permanent repercussions as determined by other
|
|
members of the project's leadership.
|
|
|
|
## A Note on Trust
|
|
|
|
Expect all contributions to be reviewed with some amount of healthy adversarial
|
|
skepticism, regardless of your perceived standing in the community. This is a
|
|
security project, and allowing ourselves to get complacent while reviewing code
|
|
simply because it comes from a well-known party would not be in the best
|
|
interest of the project. Please try not to get offended if you perceive your
|
|
contributions as being met with distrust -- we are most definitely thankful and
|
|
appreciative of your efforts, but must also remain vigilant in order to ensure
|
|
continued quality and safeguard against potential sabotage.
