Re: [HOT] Mailing List Code of Conduct

[Courtney Clark]

Thanks, Can, and others for keeping this important conversation going. I am
no CoC expert, but I'm inclined to support adopting HOT's CoC for this
mailing list, since everyone on this list has already agreed to follow it
by being involved with HOT.

I did notice in other CoC's that complaints are handled by the mailing list
moderators. The complaint handling process for HOT's CoC has its own
complaint handling process that can include various Working Groups and HOT
staff. Would it be important to amend the CoC as it applies to this list to
specifically state that complaints will be dealt with by the moderators?
And if so, I'd love to have a better understanding of who moderates the
list with Blake, if anyone, as we may need to have several others sign up
as moderators so that complaints can be handled by a diverse group with
multiple perspectives.

Thanks,

Courtney

 Thanks a lot for explaining the background of this discussion Clifford
 and Mikel.

 There are five talk lists from the US and four topic-specific lists
 that have adopted a CoC according to the mailing lists wiki [1]. Eight of
 them have accepted the US Chapter's CoC [2], while the diversity mailing
 list has a different CoC specified [3]. My personal view is to accept HOT's
 CoC [4] within this list as well, since it is widely adopted in al
 communication channels of HOT apart from here.

 I support Mikel's suggestion of a discussion within the mailing list to
 decide if a CoC should be adopted in this mailing list; and if so, what
 should be the governing text.

 I will follow up with a poll for the mailing list in the coming days
 for these discussions unless there are objections to me doing so.

Re: [HOT] Mailing List Code of Conduct

[Blake Girardot]

Hola,

Sorry, to be clear:

"Others have forged beyond that and done so anyway, imposed their own CoC,
or think they have done so, and just never been challenged on it. "

I mean other OSM list moderators, on other lists, like the diversity list,
have their own CoC, or think they do, just because no one has raised an
issue about it to challenge it. I am on the diversity list, I agree with
the CoC there, but I do not for a moment think the OSMF would support
enforcing it if someone objected.

However, the OSMF Email guidelines... those seem to be the only "official"
OSMF "CoC"

Best wishes,
blake

 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.

Re: [HOT] Mailing List Code of Conduct

[Blake Girardot]

Hi again Friends,

I see, if the question is can we HOT have our own CoC for this list?

Years ago the consensus was not really as this email list is maintained and
hosted by the OSMF on their resources.

Others have forged beyond that and done so anyway, imposed their own CoC,
or think they have done so, and just never been challenged on it.

We did not do that here. Here we stuck to OSMF Email guidelines that were
for some other issues, but existed at least.

Our need for more CoC has not really come up since that time, but I am all
for it.

The other solution was HOT starts its own list and this list get renamed
and continues on as 'humanitarian_mapp...@osm.org' and this list goes off,
with its own CoC, as a list @hotosm.org

Best wishes,
blake

Re: [HOT] Mailing List Code of Conduct

[Blake Girardot]

Hi Friends,

I have been the main moderator on the HOT list for the past 5 or 6 years.

I collaborate with Mikel, but have not really needed to for the past 3
years or so.

Is there an issue I am not aware of?

Best wishes,
Blake

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

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
