Sarah Sharp has an excellent and relevant post on what makes for an active and welcoming open source community: http://sarah.thesharps.us/2015/10/06/what-makes-a-good-community/

I would like the Wikimedia technical community to get to Level 0, and this policy is one tool we can use to get there. Please weigh in, either on the page or privately to conduct-discussion@wikimedia.org.

Full consensus was not reached on "Follow-up consensus discussion on intro, "Principles", "Expected behavior" and "Unacceptable behavior" sections" ( https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:Code_of_conduct_for_technical_spaces/Dra... ).

Instead, there are a few discussions about how to move forward (I already sent the first two to the list, so consider those a reminder):

• Whether to consider most of the text from the last discussion done, but

improve the controversial text (certain sentences/paragraphs drew the vast majority of the objections): https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:Code_of_conduct_for_technical_spaces/Dra...

• Whether to move out the "Expected behavior" to a separate non-binding

guidelines page: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:Code_of_conduct_for_technical_spaces/Dra...

• Whether to rearrange the pages used in the discussion process:

https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:Code_of_conduct_for_technical_spaces/Dra...

• Whether to replace the end of the "Unacceptable behavior" section ("Our

open source community acknowledges" etc.") with two sentences ( https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:Code_of_conduct_for_technical_spaces/Dra... ).

Thanks,

Matt Flaschen
