The discussion on the Code of Conduct for technical spaces keeps progressing, but there is one point where more feedback is would be extremely useful. It's about this sentence, and whether it needs to stay in the draft or be removed:
"Project administrators and maintainers have the right and responsibility to take action on any communication or contribution that violates this code of conduct."
The proposal for keeping it: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:Code_of_Conduct/Draft#New_proposal.2C_we...
Feedback from volunteer admins and maintainers (e.g. maintainers of an extension or Gerrit users with +2 permissions) is especially welcomed because a main point of contention is their responsibility when witnessing actions of harassment in their projects. Opinions of other admins and maintainers are very useful, since this sentence doesn't make distinction between volunteers, professionals, or anything in between.
Needless to say, anyone can participate in this discussion, just like in the other open discussions or new ones you want to create. The discussions we are focusing on currently can be found at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:Code_of_Conduct/Draft#Fine_tuning_the_ne... and the sections below. We are aiming to decide on them by the end of Wednesday, and five minutes of your time commenting on any of them can make a difference.
Thank you!
