The same privileges of participation are extended to +everyone who participates in good faith and in accordance with this Covenant. + +## Encouraged Behaviors + +While acknowledging differences in social norms, we all strive to meet our community's +expectations for positive behavior. We also understand that our words and actions may be +interpreted differently than we intend based on culture, background, or native language. + +With these considerations in mind, we agree to behave mindfully toward each other and +act in ways that center our shared values, including: + +1. Respecting the **purpose of our community**, our activities, and our ways of + gathering. +2. Engaging **kindly and honestly** with others. +3. Respecting **different viewpoints** and experiences. +4. **Taking responsibility** for our actions and contributions. +5. Gracefully giving and accepting **constructive feedback**. +6. Committing to **repairing harm** when it occurs. +7. Behaving in other ways that promote and sustain the **well-being of our community**. + +## Restricted Behaviors + +We agree to restrict the following behaviors in our community. Instances, threats, and +promotion of these behaviors are violations of this Code of Conduct. + +1. **Harassment.** Violating explicitly expressed boundaries or engaging in unnecessary + personal attention after any clear request to stop. +2. **Character attacks.** Making insulting, demeaning, or pejorative comments directed + at a community member or group of people. +3. **Stereotyping or discrimination.** Characterizing anyone’s personality or behavior + on the basis of immutable identities or traits. +4. **Sexualization.** Behaving in a way that would generally be considered + inappropriately intimate in the context or purpose of the community. +5. **Violating confidentiality**. Sharing or acting on someone's personal or private + information without their permission. +6. **Endangerment.** Causing, encouraging, or threatening violence or other harm toward + any person or group. +7. Behaving in other ways that **threaten the well-being** of our community. + +### Other Restrictions + +1. **Misleading identity.** Impersonating someone else for any reason, or pretending to + be someone else to evade enforcement actions. +2. **Failing to credit sources.** Not properly crediting the sources of content you + contribute. +3. **Promotional materials**. Sharing marketing or other commercial content in a way + that is outside the norms of the community. +4. **Irresponsible communication.** Failing to responsibly present content which + includes, links or describes any other restricted behaviors. + +## Reporting an Issue + +Tensions can occur between community members even when they are trying their best to +collaborate. Not every conflict represents a code of conduct violation, and this Code of +Conduct reinforces encouraged behaviors and norms that can help avoid conflicts and +minimize harm. + +When an incident does occur, it is important to report it promptly. To report a possible +violation, email ``leouieda at gmail dot com`` or ``maxjones at hawaii dot edu``. + +Community Moderators take reports of violations seriously and will make every effort to +respond in a timely manner. They will investigate all reports of code of conduct +violations, reviewing messages, logs, and recordings, or interviewing witnesses and +other participants. Community Moderators will keep investigation and enforcement actions +as transparent as possible while prioritizing safety and confidentiality. In order to +honor these values, enforcement actions are carried out in private with the involved +parties, but communicating to the whole community may be part of a mutually agreed upon +resolution. + +## Addressing and Repairing Harm + +If an investigation by the Community Moderators finds that this Code of Conduct has been +violated, the following enforcement ladder may be used to determine how best to repair +harm, based on the incident's impact on the individuals involved and the community as a +whole. Depending on the severity of a violation, lower rungs on the ladder may be +skipped. + +1. Warning + 1. Event: A violation involving a single incident or series of incidents. + 2. Consequence: A private, written warning from the Community Moderators. + 3. Repair: Examples of repair include a private written apology, acknowledgement of + responsibility, and seeking clarification on expectations. +2. Temporarily Limited Activities + 1. Event: A repeated incidence of a violation that previously resulted in a warning, + or the first incidence of a more serious violation. + 2. Consequence: A private, written warning with a time-limited cooldown period + designed to underscore the seriousness of the situation and give the community + members involved time to process the incident. The cooldown period may be limited + to particular communication channels or interactions with particular community + members. + 3. Repair: Examples of repair may include making an apology, using the cooldown + period to reflect on actions and impact, and being thoughtful about re-entering + community spaces after the period is over. +3. Temporary Suspension + 1. Event: A pattern of repeated violation which the Community Moderators have tried + to address with warnings, or a single serious violation. + 2. Consequence: A private written warning with conditions for return from suspension. + In general, temporary suspensions give the person being suspended time to reflect + upon their behavior and possible corrective actions. + 3. Repair: Examples of repair include respecting the spirit of the suspension, + meeting the specified conditions for return, and being thoughtful about how to + reintegrate with the community when the suspension is lifted. +4. Permanent Ban + 1. Event: A pattern of repeated code of conduct violations that other steps on the + ladder have failed to resolve, or a violation so serious that the Community + Moderators determine there is no way to keep the community safe with this person + as a member. + 2. Consequence: Access to all community spaces, tools, and communication channels is + removed. In general, permanent bans should be rarely used, should have strong + reasoning behind them, and should only be resorted to if working through other + remedies has failed to change the behavior. + 3. Repair: There is no possible repair in cases of this severity. + +This enforcement ladder is intended as a guideline. It does not limit the ability of +Community Managers to use their discretion and judgment, in keeping with the best +interests of our community. ## Scope -This Code of Conduct applies within all community spaces, and also applies when -an individual is officially representing the community in public spaces. -Examples of representing our community include using an official e-mail address, -posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed -representative at an online or offline event. - -## Enforcement - -Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be -reported to the community leaders responsible for enforcement at -``leouieda at gmail dot com`` or ``meghanj at hawaii dot edu``.
