|
| 10 | +Deis is a fully open source project. As such, the "Deis community" consists |
| 11 | +of anyone who uses the Deis software and participates in its evolution, |
| 12 | +whether by answering questions, finding bugs, suggesting enhancements, or |
| 13 | +writing documentation or code. |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +Deis development is coordinated through its project `on GitHub`_. Anyone can |
| 16 | +check out the source code for Deis, fork the project, make improvements, |
| 17 | +and create a pull request to incorporate those changes into Deis. |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | +`OpDemand`_ maintains the Deis project, and as such has final say over what |
| 20 | +ends up in the official GitHub repository for Deis. Deis depends on the |
| 21 | +contributions of the community; the maintainers will not ignore pull |
| 22 | +requests or issues. |

14 | | -The deis community welcomes and encourages participation by everyone. |
| 27 | +The deis community welcomes and encourages participation by **everyone**. |
15 | 28 |
|
16 | 29 | No matter how you identify yourself or how others perceive you: we welcome |
17 | 30 | you. We welcome contributions from everyone as long as they interact |
18 | 31 | constructively with our community. |
19 | 32 |
|
20 | | -While much of the work for our project is technical in nature, we value and |
21 | | -encourage contributions from those with expertise in other areas, and welcome |
22 | | -them into our community. |
| 33 | +The deis developer community continues to grow, and it is inevitable that |
| 34 | +disagreements and conflict will arise. We ask that participants conduct |
| 35 | +themselves according to these principles: |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | +- **Be welcoming, friendly, and patient.** |
| 38 | + |
| 39 | +- **Be considerate.** |
| 40 | + |
| 41 | + Your work will be used by other people, and you in turn will depend on |
| 42 | + the work of others. Any decision you take will affect users and |
| 43 | + colleagues, and you should take those consequences into account when |
| 44 | + making decisions. Remember that we're a world-wide community, so you |
| 45 | + might not be communicating in someone else's primary language. |
| 46 | + |
| 47 | +- **Be respectful.** |
| 48 | + |
| 49 | + Not all of us will agree all the time, but disagreement is no excuse |
| 50 | + for poor behavior and bad manners. We might all experience some |
| 51 | + frustration now and then, but we cannot allow that frustration to turn |
| 52 | + into a personal attack. It’s important to remember that a community |
| 53 | + where people feel uncomfortable or threatened is not a productive one. |
| 54 | + |
| 55 | +- **Be careful in the words that you choose.** |
| 56 | + |
| 57 | + Be kind to others. Do not insult or put down other participants. |
| 58 | + Behave professionally. Remember that harassment and sexist, racist, or |
| 59 | + exclusionary jokes are never appropriate for the community. |
