Dear all,
I've read the whole thread, and I have the impress that there are two
distinct issues that are addressed. That's part of the reason people
don't agree I think on the proposals. The first issue is to make sure
that there are no public insults on sage-devel, trac, etc. by organizing
a procedure to deal with such events. The second issue is to make this
"place" (sage-devel, trac, etc.) a friendly place where people,
especially newcomers, feel good so that they want to contribute.
The two issues are quite different, and we should as a first step make
sure we know which one we want to address right now. I feel like the
second one is more important since public insults are not real problem
here. Any proposal with formal rules that people have to obey to if they
do not want to be punished won't solve the second issue. In some sense,
as soon as somebody feels insulted, it is too late.
To me, the only thing that can be done is to have somewhere some advice
to be as polite as possible, to make constructive comments and be kind
with people, especially newcomers. Right, this sounds like common sense!
But if people feel the need that it is written somewhere, why not?
Personally, I'd rather call this "Advices" than "Code of Conduct" that
sounds too formal to my taste...
Cheers,
Bruno
