Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Our Pledge

==========

In the interest of fostering an open and welcoming environment, we as

contributors and maintainers pledge to making participation in our project and

our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body

size, disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender identity and

expression, level of experience, education, socio-economic status, nationality,

personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.

Our Standards

=============

Examples of behavior that contributes to creating a positive environment

include:

* Using welcoming and inclusive language

* Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences

* Gracefully accepting constructive criticism

* Focusing on what is best for the community

* Showing empathy towards other community members

Examples of unacceptable behavior by participants include:

* The use of sexualized language or imagery and unwelcome sexual attention or

advances

* Trolling, insulting/derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks

* Public or private harassment

* Publishing others’ private information, such as a physical or electronic

address, without explicit permission

* Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a

professional setting

Our Responsibilities

====================

Maintainers are responsible for clarifying the standards of acceptable behavior

and are expected to take appropriate and fair corrective action in response to

any instances of unacceptable behavior.

Maintainers have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or reject

comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions that are

not aligned to this Code of Conduct, or to ban temporarily or permanently any

contributor for other behaviors that they deem inappropriate, threatening,

offensive, or harmful.

Scope

=====

This Code of Conduct applies both within project spaces and in public spaces

when an individual is representing the project or its community. Examples of

representing a project or community include using an official project e-mail

address, posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed

representative at an online or offline event. Representation of a project may be

further defined and clarified by project maintainers.

Enforcement

===========

Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be

reported by contacting the Technical Advisory Board (TAB) at

<tab@lists.linux-foundation.org>. All complaints will be reviewed and

investigated and will result in a response that is deemed necessary and

appropriate to the circumstances. The TAB is obligated to maintain

confidentiality with regard to the reporter of an incident. Further details of

specific enforcement policies may be posted separately.

Maintainers who do not follow or enforce the Code of Conduct in good faith may

face temporary or permanent repercussions as determined by other members of the

project’s leadership.
