There's no need to be mean or rude. +* Respect that people have differences of opinion and that every design or +implementation choice carries a trade-off and numerous costs. There is seldom +a right answer. +* Please keep unstructured critique to a minimum. If you have solid ideas you +want to experiment with, make a fork and see how it works. +* We will exclude you from interaction if you insult, demean or harass anyone. +That is not welcome behaviour. We interpret the term "harassment" as including +the definition in the [Citizen Code of Conduct](http://citizencodeofconduct.org/); +if you have any lack of clarity about what might be included in that concept, +please read their definition. In particular, we don't tolerate behavior that +excludes people in socially marginalized groups. +* Private harassment is also unacceptable. No matter who you are, if you feel +you have been or are being harassed or made uncomfortable by a community +member, please contact one of the channel ops or any of the TC members +immediately with a capture (log, photo, email) of the harassment if possible. +Whether you're a regular contributor or a newcomer, we care about making this +community a safe place for you and we've got your back. +* Likewise any spamming, trolling, flaming, baiting or other attention-stealing +behaviour is not welcome. +* Avoid the use of personal pronouns in code comments or documentation. There +is no need to address persons when explaining code (e.g. "When the developer")
