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:

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_n…
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!
