Over the last few days, multiple reports were received at cond...@golang.org regarding public conduct on golang-nuts, as well as conduct in private channels. After review, permanent bans were given to multiple individuals, with no possibility for appeal. Further corrective actions like temporary bans and final warnings are being deliberated, pending further investigation.
As stated in our Code of Conduct <https://golang.org/conduct>, we believe that healthy debate and disagreement are essential to a healthy project and community. However, it is never ok to be disrespectful. When evaluating a response to a report and making decisions on a corrective action, the Go CoC committee takes into account the * severity of the conduct violation * impact of conduct on individuals who report to cond...@golang.org * impact of conduct on the community (bystanders, those not directly involved in CoC reports) * conduct history in all Go project spaces, assessing patterns of behavior across multiple sites versus one-off or "most recent only" conduct incidents. * impact to people of marginalized groups The last two factors also necessitate a public response, to assure those who witness unacceptable behavior, particularly in public places, that appropriate and fair corrective action was taken. We pledge <https://golang.org/conduct#our-pledge> to make participation in the Go project* and our community a harassment-free experience for everyone. Thank You, Carmen Andoh on behalf of the Go CoC committee *Go project spaces include all golang-* googlegroups, github/golang/go issue repo, and other online forums where the Go CoC is in effect. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
