There is a childish person on this list who doesn't answer questions, defames other people and unfortunately has a prominent position in a sister organisation. I don't think that a code of conduct would deal with this person, because it is going to be a very brave sysadmin to apply the ban. That's why I mentioned the full set of steps involved in setting and applying standards, most importantly the need for a second person or group to approve actions taken so that they are not taken in the heat of the moment. Then someone who banned the /important/ person would not be the target of baiting as the three people above are. I'm sorry that I have to say this about this project, but the governance of the project has been poor. Now it is too big to survive on poor governance. OSMF has tried at this stage to assume the governance of OSM, and apply firm policies to the project. None of these will deal with the underlying problem. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
