add a "Code of Conduct"

[bucanero]

As the PSP SDK community grows, I think it would be good to have some general guidelines and a code of conduct.

I propose this version since it's suggested by GitHub, but I'm open to tweak/adjust/change whatever we believe fits better to the PSP dev community.

that specific CoC you chose is well described here [removed link, off topic]

This is not a political discussion or anything like that.

If you want philosophical discussion then please find a place for that.

Here we are working on software development.

second time you tell me to go away today. probably also the reason you opened this, so you can point to the document and - to quote my link - prosecute people for violations of the Covenant, sometimes even for thoughtcrime by project contributors uttered in forums wholly unrelated to the project in question. in this case people being me.

This is not a political discussion or anything like that.

the behaviour codex you want to install here is highly political, and not at all related to

working on software development.

[bucanero]

No, this is not a political issue at all (and not about you). It's about human respect and basic social interaction.

This PSP community is a friendly place where anyone can join and share a common interest. We are devs, yet before anything we are human beings, and it's important that everyone can feel safe around here.

In this case, the code is just setting common ground to make participation in our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body size, visible or invisible disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender identity and expression, level of experience, education, socio-economic status, nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.

With essential respect, anyone can join, and we can focus on what we like to do, which is software development.

Sounds good to me. We're all here to build software and have fun with our PSPs - and everyone deserves to be able to do that without fear of harassment.

@rofl0r please refrain from posting to oftopic websites. I've removed the link from your post.

Looks perfect! Very comprehensive and inclusive. No reason to not merge. :)

[sharkwouter]

I think this is a great contribution to our community, but I'm not sure if this is the right repo. We could choose to only have this on specifically the PSPDEV repo or put it on the bigger repos, maybe on the website. Do you have any ideas on that @bucanero?

[liclac]

We could even put copies of the same CoC in all of them

Yes, I think your question is valid. I think we could:

• add CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md to the pspdev/pspdev repository (assuming that's the main hub for us)
• update the README.md here, and on the pspsdk website, linking to the CodeOfConduct.md file
  • note: a link can also be added to any other public repo on their local Readme.md

that way we keep a single source for the file, and we link as needed.

[sharkwouter]

That makes sense, I'll merge the other PR then.

[bucanero]

@liclac I hope you don't mind; I used your phrase when updating the README.md. I think it was right to the point.

@sharkwouter , as other users suggested, I think we can keep the CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md file in this repo too.

[liclac]

@bucanero Of course :)

And the reason why I suggested putting one in each repo is actually that Github will show a lil' link in the sidebar for any repo that has one, and iirc remind new contributors when they go to open their first issue or PR - it just makes it a bit more visible.
