(See the -[list of community fora](http://www.scala-lang.org/community/) -on the main Scala site.) - -Scala moderators are appointed by EPFL / Typesafe to maintain the -health of the community and will arbitrate in any dispute over the -conduct of a member of the community. - -Note: This should not be interpreted like a legal document. It's a statement -of intent, and a guideline for collaboration. - -The code of conduct consists of a few simple rules: - -## (1) Be Respectful - -The Scala community is made up of a diverse set of individuals and -backgrounds. Everyone can make a contribution to Scala. Disagreement is no -excuse for poor behavior. Also, many users coming to Scala might have -different background than others. Not knowing a particular domain is not just -cause for rude behavior. If someone is suggesting concepts -that go beyond your basic understanding, patiently asking for more information -is the right way to go. Treat each other with respect in all interactions. - -A few examples for clarification. - -Abusive language, such as: - -> F*** you - -is never welcome. The same goes for personal attacks like the following: - -> It's obvious you're a troll. - -Snide comments, like the following: - -> You really haven't comprehended anything I'm saying. - -are generally unhelpful. What you could have said: - -> I think perhaps my point was unclear. Let's rehash: - -## (2) Be Courteous - - Whether posting to a mailing list, or submitting a bug report we value your - contribution to Scala. When working with another’s work, be courteous and - professional. It’s not courteous to demand responses, insult pull requests - or post condescending bug reports. In that same vein, avoid posting messages - with little to no content on the mailing list. We have a lot of people in - the community, let’s keep our signal to noise ratio high, and set emotions - aside before coming to the table. - -## (3) Be Excellent - -Strive to improve in all things. Strive to better Scala, and improve -understanding. Improve your own teaching styles. Change the way we think about -code design. Scala is a gateway into a new world of software design, and we’re -constantly learning new things and opening new avenues. Keep an open mind -to try new things, and strive to improve what we already know. - -## (4) Be Thorough - -No matter what it is, responding to a question, fixing a bug, writing a -proposal, make sure the contribution is thorough. Don’t leave things half -written or half done. While the evolution of Scala is a continual process, -incomplete work is often of negative benefit. At the same time, contributors -will come and go, as with any open source community. If a contributor needs -to drop something, take measures to ensure someone else is willing to pick -it up, or notify the other maintainers. - - -## Violating the Code - -If a community member refuses to abide by the Code of Conduct, via -personal attacks, abusive language or snide comments, then the following -actions will be taken: - -1. **Issued a warning** On the first offense, one of the Scala moderators will issue a warning about the unacceptable behavior. -2. **Put under moderation** On the second offense, a user may be placed under moderation. This will continue for a maximum of three months. If behavior improves, a user can leave moderated status. If behavior degrades, it can lead to #3. -3. **Removal from community** If a user has already been placed under moderation and returned, or has not learned to be respectful and courteous to others, it will constitute a removal from the Scala community, including all forums the Scala moderators are responsible for.
