Code of Conduct

A friendly, safe, and welcoming community for all

Conduct

  • We are committed to providing a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for all, regardless of level of experience, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, personal appearance, body size, race, ethnicity, age, religion, nationality, or other similar characteristic.
  • Please avoid using overtly sexual aliases or other nicknames that might detract from a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for all.
  • Please be kind and courteous. 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 behavior.
  • Private harassment is also unacceptable.
  • Likewise any spamming, trolling, flaming, baiting or other attention-stealing behavior is not welcome.

Moderation

These are the policies for upholding our community’s standards of conduct. If you feel that a thread needs moderation, please contact the Zeta moderation team at mods@z-lang.org.

  1. Remarks that violate the Zeta standards of conduct, including hateful, hurtful, oppressive, or exclusionary remarks, are not allowed.
  2. Moderators will first respond to such remarks with a warning.
  3. If the warning is unheeded, the user will be temporarily excluded from interaction.
  4. If the user continues to make trouble, they will be banned indefinitely.
  5. Moderators may choose at their discretion to un-ban the user if it was a first offense and they offer a genuine apology.

In the Zeta community we strive to go the extra step to look out for each other. Don’t just aim to be technically unimpeachable, try to be your best self.

This Code of Conduct applies to all official Zeta venues, including GitHub repositories and discussions.
