We as members, contributors, and leaders pledge to make participation in our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body size, visible or invisible disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender identity and expression, level of experience, education, socio-economic status, nationality, personal appearance, race, caste, color, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.
We pledge to act and interact in ways that contribute to an open, welcoming, diverse, inclusive, and healthy community.
Examples of behavior that contributes to a positive environment include:
- demonstrating empathy and kindness toward other people;
- respecting differing opinions, viewpoints, and experiences;
- giving and gracefully accepting constructive feedback;
- accepting responsibility and apologizing to those affected by our mistakes, and learning from the experience; and
- focusing on what is best not just for us as individuals, but for the overall community.
Examples of unacceptable behavior include:
- sexualized language or imagery, and sexual attention or advances of any kind;
- trolling, insulting or derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks;
- public or private harassment;
- publishing others' private information, such as a physical or email address, without their explicit permission; and
- other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a professional setting.
Project maintainers are responsible for clarifying and enforcing these standards and will take appropriate and fair corrective action in response to behavior they deem inappropriate, threatening, offensive, or harmful.
Maintainers have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or reject comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions that are not aligned with this Code of Conduct, and will communicate reasons for moderation decisions when appropriate.
This Code of Conduct applies within all project spaces and when an individual is officially representing the project in public spaces. Examples include using an official project email address, posting through an official account, or acting as an appointed representative at an event.
Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
reported to contact@kernelguard.net. Reports will be handled as promptly and
confidentially as practical. Anyone involved in a report must recuse themselves
from handling it. If no unconflicted maintainer is available, the reporter may
request an external community mediator.
All maintainers must respect the privacy and security of the reporter of an incident.
Maintainers will use these Community Impact Guidelines in determining the consequences for any action they deem in violation of this Code of Conduct:
