Community of Developers Glibc Implements Code of Conduct
The community of developers of Glibc has recently announced the acceptance of a new Code of Conduct, which sets guidelines for communication among participants in various project resources such as the mailing list, Bugzilla, Wiki, IRC, and more. The Code of Conduct serves as a tool to address discussions that go beyond decency and also as a means to report any offensive behavior by the participants, making it easier to notify the project leadership. Additionally, the Code provides guidance for beginners on how to navigate their behavior and what they should expect.
Furthermore, the developers are actively seeking volunteers to participate in the committee responsible for analyzing complaints and resolving conflict situations within the project, as reported in the official announcement.
Main Highlights of the Code of Conduct
- Welcomes friendliness and tolerance among participants
- Emphasizes goodwill, attentiveness, and respectful attitude
- Encourages accuracy in statements and the willingness to delve into details during disagreements
- Promotes openness for all participants, regardless of their knowledge and qualifications, races, gender, culture, national origin, skin color, social status, sexual orientation, age, marital status, political beliefs, religion, or physical abilities
This Code of Conduct aims to foster a positive and inclusive environment within the Glibc community, ensuring that all participants can contribute effectively to the project while feeling respected and valued.
