+ <p> </p> <p><em>This Code of Conduct and Diversity
Statement has not yet been made official by the community. This is a work in
progress.</em></p><h1>Introduction<em><br /></em></h1><p>This code of conduct
<u>governs how we behave</u> in any forum and whenever we will be judged by our
actions. We expect it to be honoured by everyone who participates in the Apache
CouchDB community <a href="http://formally recognized roles and
responsibilities">formally</a> or informally, or claims any affiliation with
the project.</p><p>This code of conduct also <u>applies to all spaces</u>
managed by the Apache CouchDB project, including IRC, all public and private
mailing lists, the issue tracker, the wiki, the blogs, Twitter, and any other
forum which the community uses for communication. <em><span style="color:
rgb(255,0,0);">TODO: An expanded code of conduct is being drafted for events
that involve physical interaction (conferences), based on the</span> <a
href="https://www
.apache.org/foundation/policies/anti-harassment.html">published ASF
anti-harassment policy</a>.</em></p><p>This code <u>is not exhaustive or
complete</u>. 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.</p><h1>Specific Guidelines</h1><p>We strive
to:</p><ol><li><strong>Be open</strong>. We invite anyone to participate in our
community. As per <a
href="https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=40511017#ProjectBylaws%28WIP%29-3.DecisionMaking";>Section
3 of our Project Bylaws</a>, we preferably use public methods of communication
for project-related messages, unless discussing something sensitive. This
applies to messages for help or CouchDB-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.<br /><br /></li><li><strong>Be <a
class="confluence-link"
href="#ProjectCodeofConductandDiversityStatement(WIP)-Endnotes"
data-anchor="Endnotes" data-linked-resource-default-alias="Endnotes"
data-base-url="https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence";>empathetic</a>, welcoming,
friendly, and patient</strong>: 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. We should be respectful when dealing with
other community members as well as with people outside our community.<br /><br
/></li><li><strong>Be collaborative.</strong> Our work will be used by other
people, and in turn we will depend on the work of others. When we make someth
ing for the benefit of the project, 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.<br /><br /></li><li><p><strong>Be
inquisitive</strong>. <span>Nobody knows everything! </span><span>Asking
questions early avoids many problems later, so questions are encouraged, though
they may be directed to the appropriate forum.</span>Â <span>Those who are
asked should be responsive and helpful,</span> within the context of our shared
goal of improving Apache CouchDB.<br /><br /></p></li><li><strong>Be careful in
the words that we choose.</strong> 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. Harassment and other exclusionary behaviour are not acc
eptable. This includes, but is not limited to:<br /><br /><ul><li>Violent
threats or language directed against another person.</li><li>Sexist, racist, or
otherwise discriminatory jokes and language.</li><li>Posting sexually explicit
or violent material.</li><li>Posting (or threatening to post) other people's
personally identifying information ("doxing").</li><li>Sharing
private content, such as emails sent privately or non-publicly, or unlogged
forums such as IRC channel history.</li><li>Personal insults, especially those
using racist or sexist terms.</li><li>Unwelcome sexual
attention.</li><li>Excessive or unnecessary profanity.</li><li><span
style="font-size: 14.0px;line-height: 1.4285715;">Repeated harassment of
others. In general, if someone asks you to stop, then
stop.</span></li><li>Advocating for, or encouraging, any of the above
behaviour.</li></ul><strong><br /></strong></li><li><strong>Be
concise</strong>. Keep in mind that what you write once will be read by hun
dreds 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.<p>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.</p><p>Try to stay on topic, especially
in discussions that are already fairly large.<br /><br
/></p></li><li><p><strong>Step down considerately</strong><span>: 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.</span> 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.</p></li></ol><h1>Diversity
Statement</h1><p>Apache CouchDB welcomes and encourages participation by
everyone. We are committed to being a community that everyone feels good about
joining. Although we may not be able to satisfy everyone, we will always work
to treat everyone well.</p><p>No matter how you identify yourself or how others
perceive you: we welcome you. Though no list can hope to be comprehensive, we
explicitly honour diversity in: age, culture, ethnicity, genotype, gender
identity or expression, language, national origin, neurotype, phenotype,
political beliefs, profession, race, religion, sexual orientation,
socioeconomic status, subculture and technical ability.</p><p>Though we welcome
people fluent in all languages, Apache CouchDB development is conducted in
English.</p><p>Standards for behaviour in the Apache CouchDB community are
detailed in the Code
of Conduct above. We expect participants in our community to meet these
standards in all their interactions and to help others to do so as
well.</p><p>If you want to help encourage a more diverse community, we
encourage you to <em><span style="color: rgb(255,0,0);">TODO: join the
diversity mailing list at <TBD></span></em></p><h1>Reporting
Guidelines</h1><p>While this code of conduct should be adhered to by
participants, we recognize that sometimes people may have a bad day, or be
unaware of some of the guidelines in this code of conduct. When that happens,
you may reply to them and point out this code of conduct. Such messages may be
in public or in private, whatever is most appropriate. However, regardless of
whether the message is public or not, it should still adhere to the relevant
parts of this code of conduct; in particular, it should not be abusive or
disrespectful. </p><p>If you believe someone is violating this code of
conduct, you may reply to them and point out
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 behaviour 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 compliance issues in confidence to <a
href="mailto:[email protected]";>[email protected]</a>.</p><p>If
the violation is in documentation or code, for example inappropriate pronoun
usage or word choice within official documentation, we ask that people report
these privately to the project at <a
href="mailto:[email protected]";>[email protected]</a>, and,
if they have sufficient ability within the project, to resolve or remove the
concerning material, being mindful of the perspective of the person originally
reporting the issue.</p><h1>Endnotes</h1><p>This Code defines
<strong>empathy</strong> as "a vicarious
participation in the emotions, ideas, or opinions of others; the ability to
imagine oneself in the condition or predicament of another."
<strong>Empathetic</strong> is the adjectival form of empathy.</p><p>This
