# FAQ {#coc-faq} | ||
|
||
This FAQ attempts to address common questions and concerns around the RIOT | ||
community's [Code of Conduct][CoC]. If you still have questions after | ||
reading it, please feel free to [contact us][CoC-question-mail]. | ||
|
||
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ||
|
||
### Why have you adopted a Code of Conduct? | ||
|
||
If you're familiar with the RIOT | ||
community, you'll probably notice that the Code basically matches what we | ||
already do. Think of this as documentation: we're taking implicit expectations | ||
about behavior and making them explicit. | ||
|
||
We're doing this because the RIOT community is growing faster than any of us | ||
could have anticipated. This is on balance a very positive thing, but as we've | ||
grown past the point where it's possible to know the whole community we think | ||
it's very important to be clear about our values. | ||
|
||
We know that the RIOT community is open, friendly, and welcoming. We want to | ||
make sure everyone else knows it too. | ||
|
||
### What does it mean to "adopt" a Code of Conduct? | ||
|
||
For the most part, we don't think it means large changes. We think that the text | ||
does a really good job describing the way the RIOT community already conducts | ||
itself. We expect that most people will simply continue to behave in the awesome | ||
way they have for years. | ||
|
||
However, we do expect that people will abide by the spirit and words of the CoC | ||
when in "official" RIOT spaces. This code has been adopted by the RIOT community | ||
as a whole. That means that it'll apply in all community spaces. | ||
|
||
In practice, this means the [RIOT forum](https://forum.riot-os.org), the Matrix | ||
chats (e.g., [`#riot-os`](https://matrix.to/#/#riot-os:matrix.org) or | ||
[`#riot-os-off-topic`](https://matrix.to/#/#riot-os-off-topic:matrix.org)), | ||
mailing lists (e.g., [email protected]), bug tracking and code review tools, | ||
and "official" RIOT events such as Hack'n'ACKs or RIOT summits. In addition, | ||
violations of this code outside these spaces may affect a person's ability to | ||
participate within them. | ||
|
||
### What happens if someone violates the Code of Conduct? | ||
|
||
Our intent is that anyone in the community can stand up for this code, and | ||
direct people who're unaware to this document. If that doesn't work, or if you | ||
need more help, you can contact <[email protected]>. For more details please see | ||
our [Reporting Guidelines](@ref coc-reporting-guide). | ||
|
||
### Why do we need a Code of Conduct? Everyone knows not to be a jerk. | ||
|
||
Sadly, not everyone knows this. | ||
|
||
However, even if everyone was kind, everyone was compassionate, and everyone was | ||
familiar with codes of conduct it would still be incumbent upon our community to | ||
publish our own. Maintaining a code of conduct forces us to consider and | ||
articulate what kind of community we want to be, and serves as a constant | ||
reminder to put our best foot forward. But most importantly, it serves as a | ||
signpost to people looking to join our community that we feel these values are | ||
important. | ||
|
||
### This is censorship! I have the right to say whatever I want! | ||
|
||
You do -- in *your* space. If you'd like to hang out in *our* spaces (as | ||
clarified above), we have some simple guidelines to follow. If you want to, for | ||
example, form a group where RIOT is discussed using language inappropriate for | ||
general channels then nobody's stopping you. We respect your right to establish | ||
whatever codes of conduct you want in the spaces that belong to you. Please | ||
honor this Code of Conduct in our spaces. | ||

# Reporting Guidelines {#coc-reporting-guide} | ||
|
||
If you believe someone is violating the [code of conduct][CoC] we ask that you | ||
report it to us by emailing <[email protected]>. Currently, the recipients of | ||
this email address are [\@OlegHahm](https://github.com/OlegHahm) (Oleg Hahm) and | ||
[\@miri64](https://github.com/miri64) (Martine Lenders). | ||
|
||
**All reports will be kept confidential.** In some cases we may determine that a | ||
public statement will need to be made. If that's the case, the identities of all | ||
victims and reporters will remain confidential unless those individuals instruct | ||
us otherwise. | ||
|
||
**If you believe anyone is in physical danger, please notify appropriate law | ||
enforcement first.** If you are unsure what law enforcement agency is | ||
appropriate, please include this in your report and we will attempt to notify | ||
them. | ||
|
||
If you are unsure whether the incident is a violation, or whether the space | ||
where it happened is covered by this Code of Conduct, we encourage you to still | ||
report it. We would much rather have a few extra reports where we decide to take | ||
no action, rather than miss a report of an actual violation. We do not look | ||
negatively on you if we find the incident is not a violation. And knowing about | ||
incidents that are not violations, or happen outside our spaces, can also help | ||
us to improve the Code of Conduct or the processes surrounding it. | ||
|
||
In your report please include: | ||
|
||
- Your contact info (so we can get in touch with you if we need to follow up) | ||
- Names (real, nicknames, or pseudonyms) of any individuals involved. If there | ||
were other witnesses besides you, please try to include them as well. | ||
- When and where the incident occurred. Please be as specific as possible. | ||
- Your account of what occurred. If there is a publicly available record (e.g. | ||
forum post, a mailing list archive, or a public Matrix chat link) please include a link. | ||
- Any extra context you believe existed for the incident. | ||
- If you believe this incident is ongoing. | ||
- Any other information you believe we should have. | ||
|
||
### What happens after you file a report? | ||
|
||
You will receive an email from one of the core community members as soon as | ||
possible. We promise to acknowledge receipt within 24 hours (and will aim for | ||
much quicker than that). | ||
|
||
They will review the incident and determine: | ||
|
||
- What happened. | ||
- Whether this event constitutes a code of conduct violation. | ||
- Who the bad actor was. | ||
- Whether this is an ongoing situation, or if there is a threat to anyone's | ||
physical safety. | ||
|
||
If this is determined to be an ongoing incident or a threat to physical safety, | ||
their immediate priority will be to protect everyone involved. | ||
This means we may delay an "official" response until we believe that the | ||
situation has ended and that everyone is physically safe. | ||
|
||
Once the working group has a complete account of the events they will make a | ||
decision as to how to response. Responses may include: | ||
|
||
- Nothing (if we determine no violation occurred). | ||
- A private reprimand from us to the individual(s) involved. | ||
- A public reprimand. | ||
- An imposed vacation (i.e. asking someone to "take a week off" from the forum, the Matrix chats, or a mailing | ||
list). | ||
- A permanent or temporary ban from some or all RIOT spaces (forum, Matrix chats, mailing lists, | ||
etc.) | ||
- A request for a public or private apology. | ||
|
||
We'll respond within one week to the person who filed the report with either a | ||
resolution or an explanation of why the situation is not yet resolved. | ||
|
||
Once we've determined our final action, we'll contact the original reporter to | ||
let them know what action (if any) we'll be taking. We'll take into account | ||
feedback from the reporter on the appropriateness of our response, but we don't | ||
guarantee we'll act on it. | ||
