On to the code of conduct committee:
This needs to be explicitly international and ideally people from very
different cultures. This is the best protection against one small group
within one country deciding to push a political agenda via the Code of
Conduct. I would recommend adding a note here that the committee will be
international and culturally diverse, and tasked with keeping the
peace and
facilitating a productive and collegial environment.
I strongly agree with this.
CoCs discussed in other projects have an inclination towards US view
points. Maybe the reason for this is that many community members are US
residents and are having the problems of their society in mind when
thinking of what a CoC should be. But what is acceptable in the US might
be unacceptable in other parts of the world and vice versa.
Please procure that the CoC is not a vehicle to propagate US values.
Let's remember that we are an International project and let's not direct
particular frustration at any particular set of values. It would be very
easy to start a culture war within this thread alone.
