PSF Code of Conduct Workgroup Charter
Contents
Purpose & Common Goals
The workgroup's purpose is to foster a diverse and inclusive Python community by enforcing the PSF code of conduct, along with providing guidance and recommendations to the Python community on codes of conduct, that supports the PSF mission of “ongoing development of Python-related technology and educational resources”.
We work toward this common goal in three ways:
Review, revise, and advise on policies relating to the PSF code of conducts and other communities that the PSF supports. This includes any #python chat community & python.org email list under PSF jurisdiction.
- Create a standard set of codes of conduct and supporting documents for multiple channels of interaction such as, but not limited to, conferences, mailing lists, slack/IRC, code repositories, and more.
- Develop training materials and other processes to support Python community organizers in implementing and enforcing the code of conduct.
Active Time
It will continue to exist as long as the workgroup and the PSF Board determines it is needed.
Core Values
The core values for this group are:
- Respect
- Support
- Constructiveness
- Integrity
The workgroup adopts the PSF Code of Conduct (https://www.python.org/psf/codeofconduct/). Any actions made against the principles in the Code of Conduct (found by a simple majority of 51%+) will result in the acting person being removed from the workgroup.
Membership
- Code of Conduct Workgroup voting members are required to confirm continuing participating in the workgroup within one month of a new board election. This will be led by chair/vice-chairs. If there is no response within two weeks, then the individual is automatically removed.
- A member of the Code of Conduct Workgroup, can step down at anytime, and the workgroup will work to replace that voting member.
