[llvm-dev] [cfe-dev] FYI: Landing the initial draft for an LLVM Code of Conduct
That's just a residual clause. It's not sanely possible to enumerate all the possibilities here (IE if you stalk and murder someone in the llvm community, you are going to get kicked out of the community, regardless of if you did it in a controlled space) I mean, i'm subject to legal ethics rules that are very similar, and those could get me kicked out of an entire profession :) I guess one could write "In addition, violations of this code outside these spaces may, in rare cases, affect a person's ability to participate within them, when the conduct amounts to an egregious violation of the communitie's social standard." But it's not, in practice, any different. Basically, if you are looking for complete and total bright line proscribed standards, they pretty much don't exist anywhere except in criminal statutes :) On Thu, Jun 30, 2016, 2:45 PM Robinson, Paul <paul.robinson at sony.com> wrote:> I expect Rafael's concern is because the code also says: > > > > In addition, violations of this code outside these spaces may, in rare > cases, affect a person's ability to participate within them. > > > > So it can apply outside spaces explicitly sponsored by LLVM, in undefined > circumstances. > > --paulr > > > > *From:* cfe-dev [mailto:cfe-dev-bounces at lists.llvm.org] *On Behalf Of *Daniel > Berlin via cfe-dev > *Sent:* Thursday, June 30, 2016 1:37 PM > *To:* Rafael Espíndola > *Cc:* llvm-dev; cfe-dev; openmp-dev (openmp-dev at lists.llvm.org); LLDB > *Subject:* Re: [cfe-dev] [llvm-dev] FYI: Landing the initial draft for an > LLVM Code of Conduct > > > > > > > > On Thu, Jun 30, 2016 at 1:23 PM, Rafael Espíndola <llvm-dev at lists.llvm.org> > wrote: > > I am strongly opposed to it as it stands. > > Who decided this and with what authority?

[llvm-dev] [cfe-dev] FYI: Landing the initial draft for an LLVM Code of Conduct
I don’t know what you meant to imply by “residual clause” — if you meant “it’s not particularly important”, then I suggest it is left out entirely. Apparently at least a few of us have interpreted it to say “the committee reserves the right to kick you out for any behaviour that violates our standards which you exhibit anywhere, even if it is completely unrelated to the llvm community”. Personally, I’m just going to ignore it, and thus don’t really care whether it stays or goes — but I do find it overreaching and intrusive, and completely inappropriate in such a code of conduct.

[llvm-dev] [cfe-dev] FYI: Landing the initial draft for an LLVM Code of Conduct
I guess the point is that, for some, not having that clause, causes discomfort and reduce their contribution. For others, having that clause causes discomfort and reduce their contribution. I don't think one is more important than the other, nor I think we should see this as which side makes more contributions. Daniel's version, although similar, is clearer, and may discourage abuse even more that Chandler's original fix. I'm OK with that, too. I guess I prefer to be reactive. If people start abusing, I'll make some comments, then some noise, than official complaints to the board, etc. If none of that works, getting out of here is the obvious choice. But that will take an impressive amount of abuse and carelessness, and the community will be already fragmented by then. My tuppence.

But it's not, in practice, any different. Basically, if you are looking for complete and total bright line proscribed standards, they pretty much don't exist anywhere except in criminal statutes :) On Thu, Jun 30, 2016, 2:45 PM Robinson, Paul <paul.robinson at sony.com<mailto:paul.robinson at sony.com>> wrote: I expect Rafael's concern is because the code also says: In addition, violations of this code outside these spaces may, in rare cases, affect a person's ability to participate within them.

Who decided this and with what authority? As written the code of conduct tries restrict the acceptable opinions one may voice even in channels not related to llvm at all. errr, it says: "This code of conduct applies to all spaces managed by the LLVM project or The LLVM Foundation. This includes IRC channels, mailing lists, bug trackers, LLVM vents such as the developer meetings and socials, and any other forums created by the project that the community uses for communication. " How does this cover channels not related to llvm? With this in place I will not consider myself a member of the llvm community anymore and would be terrified to interact with another llvm developer in a social setting. That would be sad, but i guess i'm not sure what is causing that. Is it that there is discretion in there that you are afraid may apply to you if taken to some extreme?

[llvm-dev] [cfe-dev] FYI: Landing the initial draft for an LLVM Code of Conduct

I doubt, for example, either the Google or Sony employee handbooks have precise bright lines on what conduct is okay and not okay. Yet they still have serious consequences.> Again, if it's not any different, is there a problem with writing it in a > way that provides clarity to the non-lawyer population? >I don't think any way you write it will provide clarity as to precisely what conduct will and will not be okay. Anyway, since I don't think what you seem to want is possible, and I think it's fine as-is. But I understand if you disagree. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
