There are +many behavior or etiquette guides for online communities out there; we have a few +Apache-specific tips below.</p> +<h1 id="coc">Code of Conduct<a class="headerlink" href="#coc" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h1> +<p>The ASF has adopted a <a href="http://www.apache.org/foundation/policies/conduct.html">Code of Conduct</a> which covers interactions in +all the online spaces that Apache projects use - email, issue trackers, wikis, +websites, IRC, and the like. Apache projects are made up of volunteers, and +we work to ensure that all productive contributions are welcomed. Every +Apache PMC is expected to ensure their project's lists show +proper behavior.</p> +<h1 id="worldwide">Distributed, Archived, Worldwide Online Communities<a class="headerlink" href="#worldwide" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h1> +<p>Apache projects are made up of communities of volunteers from around the +world. When you are sending email to an Apache project mailing list, there may +be software developers in this country, marketing managers in that country, and +homemakers in another country reading your email. They will be reading your +mail at all hours of the day, and both at work, at home, and on the go. If you +want a response to your questions or suggestions, be sure to be polite and +sensible when writing.</p> +<p>There are many amazing people helping out on Apache project mailing +lists - but they are all volunteers. Being respectful of the time and +culture of others on the list is a key start to making productive contributions.</p> +<h1 id="member">One Member's Participation Guidelines<a class="headerlink" href="#member" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h1> +<p>The ASF is run by several hundred Members, who have deep and lasting experience +in helping to build and run long-term successful open source projects here +at Apache. This is just one member's take on how to approach +communicating in an Apache project.</p> +<p><strong>First a few general guidelines</strong></p> +<ul> +<li> +<p>Assume that the other party agrees more than disagrees with you. We +tend to leave out agreements and focus on differences. Sometime this is +forgotten and escalation becomes absurd for no rational reason.</p> +</li> +<li> +<p>When in doubt, assume that you are interpreting the message wrongly +and kindly ask for verification that you understood a particular topic well.</p> +</li> +<li> +<p>When writing, assume that every sentence will be misinterpreted. +Review and try to reformulate to be as clear as possible.</p> +</li> +<li> +<p>Use a submissive tone in all writing. Instead of the strong "In my +opinion, we must..." or the quite neutral "I think we should...", try to +use "Maybe we should consider..." or "Another idea that we could..."</p> +</li> +<li> +<p>If you disagree strongly with an email sent, tag it Important, then +put it aside. Read it half a day later again. Put it aside. Read it again +next day, and then it is easier to write a balanced and inviting response, +instead of the initial vitriol that flows through us when we get upset. I +found that sometimes a response wouldn't be necessary, as the importance +was actually much lower than originally perceived, and I would be able to +work "with", instead of "against", a given change.</p> +</li> +<li> +<p>Be forgiving and accept different priorities. The other person is not +out to get you or attack your work. More often than not, it is one of the +above (a-d) that are failing, or that the other person prioritize some +aspect higher than you do. Sometimes, this requires compromises, sometimes +not and the different priorities can co-exist.</p> +</li> +</ul> +<p><strong>Most communities at Apache consists of level-headed, reasonable people</strong>, who +have a strong vested interest in their Apache project. This interest, often +passion, is both the source of tension, but it is also what unites the +people within the community. It is easy to forget the vast amount of +agreement that exists, and get upset over relatively small disagreements. +Ability to put that aside, or downplay the importance, will ensure a +harmonious project.</p> +<p><strong>Face-to-Face</strong> is excellent way to eliminate disagreements, but that is often +not practical. Consider Skype or Google Hangout, just for the social aspect +of being part of this community. It should not be formal, and the +invitation should go out to everyone, perhaps someone want to make a short +presentation of what he/she is doing, to have some "structure", but that +might not be needed either. Once we have a face to the words, and a general +idea how that person is socially, we are much more capable to interact by +email.</p> +<p>Note that project <em>decisions</em> should always be made on mailing lists.<br /> +It's great to have a synchronous online chat to work through some questions, but +be sure to bring the results of the chat - and any proposals for the +project community to consider - back to the mailing list. People who +weren't able to attend the chat or call might also have ideas on the topic.</p> +<h1 id="other">Other Apache Etiquette Guidelines<a class="headerlink" href="#other" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h1> +<ul> +<li><a href="http://www.apache.org/dev/contrib-email-tips">Email Etiquette Guidelines - writing good emails</a></li> +<li><a href="http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html">How To Ask Smart Questions</a></li> +<li><a href="http://community.apache.org/committers/consensusBuilding.html">Building Consensus in a community</a></li> +</ul> + </div> + + <footer class="footer" align="center"> + <div class="container"> + <p> + Copyright © 2013-2015 The Apache Software Foundation, Licensed under + the <a href="http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0">Apache License, Version 2.0</a>. + <br /> + Apache and the Apache feather logos are trademarks of The Apache Software Foundation. + </p> + </div> + </footer> + + <script src="/js/jquery-1.9.1.min.js"></script> + <script src="/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script> + <script> + (function() { + var cx = '012254517474945470291:vhsfv7eokdc'; + var gcse = document.createElement('script'); + gcse.type = 'text/javascript'; + gcse.async = true; + gcse.src = (document.location.protocol == 'https:' ?
