########## CHAT_BYLAWS.md: ########## @@ -0,0 +1,50 @@ +# Apache Polaris - Project Chat Bylaws + +Apache Polaris is currently undergoing Incubation at the Apache Software Foundation. + +## Motivation + +The Polaris project uses a public and open chat service currently provided by Zulip hosted +at https://polaris-catalog.zulipchat.com/. A few rules shall ensure that the chat conforms to the rules and best +practices of the Apache Software Foundation and serves well as a collaboration tool for the project. + +Organizations and other open-source projects that contribute continuously and significantly to Polaris are welcome, but +shall not use the Polaris chat as a vehicle for their own marketing without explicit approval of the project (P)PMC. + +## Code of Conduct + +The [Apache Software Foundation’s Code of Conduct](https://www.apache.org/foundation/policies/conduct.html) applies to +the Polaris project public chat. + +## Governance + +* The Polaris project’s chat tool is not provided by the ASF - the Polaris project (P)PMC members govern and monitor the + chat service. +* Everybody is welcome to join the Polaris project chat. Invites are not needed. +* All users are automatically promoted to “members” (don’t stay in “guests”). +* Polaris project (P)PMC members have “owner” privileges on the Zulip chat. Polaris project committers are granted + “moderator” or “administrator” privileges for moderation purposes. +* This bylaws document shall be published on the project’s web site and linked from relevant public channels. +* Only (P)PMC members are allowed to create new channels. The number of channels shall be limited to #general (user + discussions), #dev (development discussions), #announcements (release announcements), and #noise (GitHub feed). +* Only (P)PMC members are allowed to notify a large number of users (aka @here). + +## 3rd Parties + +Definition: “3rd party” means any (other) open-source project or any commercial vendor or any other organization. + +### 3rd Party Channels + +* 3rd parties who contribute to or use the Polaris project may ask the (P)PMC to get a dedicated public channel, for + example #vendor-<vendor-name> or #project-<project-name>. +* Promotion of 3rd party content is only permitted in these 3rd party channels, and only if the content primarily covers + Polaris. Commercial advertisements in any form are prohibited. +* Interaction with users of 3rd party OSS projects or commercial products should be directed to these 3rd party + channels. + +## Content moderation + +* User content in any form is not moderated. Review Comment: To simplify this I would recommend we do a slight rewording 1. Any content which violates the Apache CoC will be removed 2. Any commercial advertisements will be removed 3. All other content will be unmoderated -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
