# Zom.bi Code of Conduct
|
|
|
|
## 1. Purpose
|
|
|
|
A primary goal of Zom.bi is to be inclusive to the largest number of
|
|
contributors, with the most varied and diverse backgrounds possible. As such, we
|
|
are committed to providing a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for all,
|
|
regardless of gender, sexual orientation, ability, ethnicity, physical
|
|
appearance and socioeconomic status.
|
|
|
|
This code of conduct outlines our expectations for all those who participate in
|
|
our community, as well as the consequences for unacceptable behavior.
|
|
|
|
We invite all those who participate in Zom.bi to help us create safe and
|
|
positive experiences for everyone.
|
|
|
|
## 2. Open Source/Culture/Tech Citizenship
|
|
|
|
A supplemental goal of this Code of Conduct is to increase open
|
|
source/culture/tech citizenship by encouraging participants to recognize and
|
|
strengthen the relationships between our actions and their effects on our
|
|
community.
|
|
|
|
Communities mirror the societies in which they exist and positive action is
|
|
essential to counteract the many forms of inequality and abuses of power that
|
|
exist in society.
|
|
|
|
If you see someone who is making an extra effort to ensure our community is
|
|
welcoming, friendly, and encourages all participants to contribute to the
|
|
fullest extent, we want to know.
|
|
|
|
## 3. Expected Behavior
|
|
|
|
The following behaviors are expected and requested of all community members:
|
|
|
|
* Try to participate in an authentic and active way. In doing so, you
|
|
contribute to the health and longevity of this community.
|
|
* Exercise consideration and respect in your speech and actions.
|
|
* Attempt collaboration before conflict.
|
|
* Remember that community event venues may be shared with members of the
|
|
public; please be respectful to all patrons of these locations.
|
|
|
|
## 4. Unacceptable Behavior
|
|
|
|
The following behaviors are considered harassment and are unacceptable within
|
|
our community:
|
|
|
|
* Violence, threats of violence or violent language directed against another
|
|
person.
|
|
* Sexist, racist, homophobic, transphobic, antisemitic, ableist or otherwise discriminatory
|
|
jokes and language.
|
|
* Posting or displaying sexually explicit or violent material.
|
|
* Posting or threatening to post other people's personally identifying
|
|
information ("doxing").
|
|
* Personal insults, particularly those related to gender, sexual orientation,
|
|
race, religion, physical appearance or disability.
|
|
* Inappropriate photography or recording.
|
|
* Inappropriate physical contact. You should have someone's consent before
|
|
touching them.
|
|
* Unwelcome sexual attention. This includes, sexualized comments or jokes;
|
|
inappropriate touching, groping, and unwelcomed sexual advances.
|
|
* Deliberate intimidation, stalking or following (online or in person).
|
|
* Sustained disruption of community events, including talks and presentations.
|
|
|
|
## 5. Weapons Policy
|
|
|
|
No weapons will be allowed at Zom.bi events, community spaces, or in other
|
|
spaces covered by the scope of this Code of Conduct. Weapons include but are not
|
|
limited to guns, explosives (including fireworks), and large knives such as
|
|
those used for hunting or display, as well as any other item used for the
|
|
purpose of causing injury or harm to others. Anyone seen in possession of one of
|
|
these items will be asked to leave immediately, and will only be allowed to
|
|
return without the weapon. Community members are further expected to comply with
|
|
all state and local laws on this matter.
|
|
|
|
The only exception to this policy are fireworks for community events on New
|
|
Year's Eve. Community members however are expected to refrain from lighting or
|
|
launching fireworks until midnight local time. This exception must be provided
|
|
with any invitation to said community event.
|
|
|
|
## 6. Consequences of Unacceptable Behavior
|
|
|
|
Unacceptable behavior from any community member, including sponsors and those
|
|
with decision-making authority, will not be tolerated.
|
|
|
|
Anyone asked to stop unacceptable behavior is expected to comply immediately.
|
|
|
|
If a community member engages in unacceptable behavior, the community organizers
|
|
may take any action they deem appropriate, up to and including a temporary ban
|
|
or permanent expulsion from the community without warning (and without refund in
|
|
the case of a paid event).
|
|
|
|
## 7. Reporting Guidelines
|
|
|
|
If you are subject to or witness unacceptable behavior, or have any other
|
|
concerns, please notify a community organizer as soon as possible.
|
|
|
|
https://wiki.zom.bi/doku.php?id=coc:reporting
|
|
|
|
Additionally, community organizers are available to help community members
|
|
engage with local law enforcement or to otherwise help those experiencing
|
|
unacceptable behavior feel safe. In the context of in-person events, organizers
|
|
will also provide escorts as desired by the person experiencing distress.
|
|
|
|
## 8. Addressing Grievances
|
|
|
|
If you feel you have been falsely or unfairly accused of violating this Code of
|
|
Conduct, you should notify any administrator with a concise description of your
|
|
grievance. Your grievance will be handled in accordance with our existing
|
|
governing policies. Contact the project administrators at <root@zom.bi> and the
|
|
zom.bi board will review your case.
|
|
|
|
## 9. Scope
|
|
|
|
We expect all community participants (contributors, paid or otherwise; sponsors;
|
|
and other guests) to abide by this Code of Conduct in all community
|
|
venues--online and in-person--as well as in all one-on-one communications
|
|
pertaining to community business.
|
|
|
|
This code of conduct and its related procedures also applies to unacceptable
|
|
behavior occurring outside the scope of community activities when such behavior
|
|
has the potential to adversely affect the safety and well-being of community
|
|
members.
|
|
|
|
## 10. Contact info
|
|
|
|
The responsible contact is still being decided on. In the mean time feel free to
|
|
contact any member of the admin team in case of questions.
