# Fatcat Code of Conduct
In this early stage of the project, this document is a work in progress. In
particular there is no moderation team or policy for responding to concerns in
online discussions. However, it is important to clarify norms and expectations
as early as possible.
To contact the Internet Archive privately about conduct concerns or to report
unacceptable behavior, you can email <ethics@archive.org>.
## Overview
- 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.
- This Code of Conduct applies to all online project spaces (including the
catalog itself, code repositories, mailing lists, chat rooms, forums, and
comment threads), as well as any physical spaces such as conference
gatherings or meetups.
- All participants are expected to respect this code, irregardless of their
position or record of contributions to the project.
## Unacceptable behavior
The following types of behavior are unacceptable in the Fatcat project, both
online and in-person, and constitute code of conduct violations.
### Abusive behavior
- **Harassment:** including offensive verbal comments related to gender, sexual
orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, or religion,
as well as sexual images in public spaces, deliberate intimidation, stalking,
following, harassing photography or recording, inappropriate physical
contact, and unwelcome sexual or romantic attention.
- **Threats:** threatening someone physically or verbally. For example,
threatening to publicize sensitive information about someone’s personal life.
### Unwelcoming behavior
- **Blatant-isms:** saying things that are explicitly racist, sexist,
homophobic, etc. For example, arguing that some people are less intelligent
because of their gender, race or religion. Subtle -isms and small mistakes
made in conversation are not code of conduct violations. However, repeating
something after it has been pointed out to you that you broke a social rule,
or antagonizing or arguing with someone who has pointed out your subtle -ism
is considered unwelcoming behavior, and is not allowed in the project.
- **Maliciousness towards other participants:** deliberately attempting to make
others feel bad, name-calling, singling out others for derision or exclusion.
For example, telling someone they’re not a real programmer or that they don’t
belong in the project.
- **Being especially unpleasant:** for example, if we’ve received reports from
multiple Recursers or faculty of annoying, rude, or especially distracting
behavior.
- Spamming, trolling, flaming, baiting or other attention-stealing behavior is
not welcome.
