Well, I've just watched that video. Did anyone else? Recommended -
it's only 30 minutes.

Is that too long? Well, here's two extracts.

Once again, recommended. I hope you'll watch the video.

[Python-ideas] Conduct on python-ideas

2018-08-13 Thread Brett Cannon
don't treat
everything as a kindness then open source simply doesn't work and people
end up walking way from open source and the Python community.

So,* ramifications from all of this* ...

Steven, stop stating your opinion as fact and being needlessly abrasive.
Your abrasiveness in responses has pushed multiple threads to breaking
points like this before and I know you have the skills to not do that if
you chose to because I've seen it here and on other mailing lists.
Constructive conversations never need anything abrasive in them in order to
get your intentions across. Consider this a warning to scale back the tone
in response to be more respectful.

Abe, you're receiving a warning about how you eventually reacted. In the
future please just step away from the keyboard until you can react
appropriately. The way you responded to Steven is not acceptable as it
isn't respectful to others on this list and there shouldn't be "vigilante
responses"; if you feel someone has violated the CoC then tell us admins
and we will handle it.
