Re: [HOT] Mailing List Code of Conduct

Actually Clifford asked me because I'm the inactive moderator of this mailing 
list, and I passed it on for discussion within the HOT membership.

And yes, I don't think request for Board to approve is appropriate at this 
time. However, the discussion here could be useful for a larger discussion 
about communications and trust and safety within OSM.

Can,
I'm on the US Chapter's CoC committee. The Chapter formally adopted a CoC this 
year. US centric mailing list moderators were invited to opt in to having their 
lists covered by the CoC. If you look at wiki [1] you can see which lists are 
covered by a CoC with a link back to the CoC. 

I would encourage HOT to do something similar. It does not need approval from 
OSMF. Especially since OSMF only has etiquette guidelines with no means to 
handle complaints. 

Best,
Clifford

[HOT] Mailing List Code of Conduct

[Can Unen]

Hello everybody, I'm writing to carry a conversation in HOTOSM membership
lists to here, hoping to kick-off a discussion and maybe reach a consensus.

A couple of days ago Mikel had asked about the governing code of conduct
for this mailing list, and the initial thought was to assume the HOT CoC
 should be it. But the thing is,
this list is operated and maintained by OSMF, and the Community CoC Draft

and OSMF
Communication Guidelines
 seem to
cover the mailing list as well, but they seem to be outdated, and
unmaintained for some time.

Do you think a CoC need to be adopted in the mailing list, and how?

In such case, would a consensus in the list be sufficient for this, or
should there be a decision from the OSMF board?

Thanks a lot in advance for the feedback.

Best

Can
