I was hoping that our code of conduct could be something closer to the "be nice" model, covering the following points:- - Be respectful and polite.
- - Presume everyone else is doing so, too.
- - Be open to constructive feedback.
- - Well-meaning people on a worldwide, multi-cultural platform can *accidentally* say things that are taken poorly. If you're on either side of such a misunderstanding, presume good faith and try to work it out amicably.
- - If you see something, say something (privately in a flag or constructively in public). We take violations seriously and will follow up.
- I really don't think we need a bunch of bullet points about what specifically counts as harassment and which special groups we protect and so on. If *anybody* feels like something abusive is happening, we need to deal with it without getting into rules-lawyering ("you didn't say Pastafarians are off-limits!" or whatever).
- Plus, mine's short enough that people who read any of it will read all of it.

I really don't think we need a bunch of bullet points about what specifically counts as harassment and which special groups we protect and so on. If *anybody* feels like something abusive is happening, we need to deal with it without getting into rules-lawyering ("you didn't say Pastafarians are off-limits!" or whatever).
