<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>
-<h1>Introduction<em><br></em></h1>
+<h1>Introduction</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%20recognized%20roles%20and%20responsibilities">formally</a>
or informally, or claims any affiliation with the project.
<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>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.
<h1>Specific Guidelines</h1>
<p>We strive to:
<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><strong>Be <a
href="#ProjectCodeofConductandDiversityStatement(WIP)-Endnotes">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><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 something 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>

<li>
-<p><strong>Be inquisitive</strong>. Nobody knows everything! Asking questions
early avoids many problems later, so questions are encouraged, though they may
be directed to the appropriate forum. Those who are asked should be responsive
and helpful, within the context of our shared goal of improving Apache
CouchDB.<br>
-<br>
-<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 acceptable. This includes, but is not limited to:<br>

necessary, consider adding a summary.

-<p><strong>Step down considerately</strong>: Members of every project come and

they are leaving and take the proper steps to ensure that others can pick up
where they left off. 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.</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>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.
