I like this as a possibly way to find areas of Fedora where our community isn't as welcoming as we all would like and have people that can join in and provide positive info and answers (ignoring or letting the unwelcoming people drift off to the fringe). I do think we should be carefull here not to empower this group with all kinds of punishment ability or enforcement. Negativity feeds on more Negativity. ;) > After speaking with several current members of kde's cwg, they > expressed that it was very important to have a clear code of > conduct(coc).

Another > good reference, http://www.kde.org/code-of-conduct/ I'm not sure about a code of conduct, but the above one is nice. It points out things you should try to do/be, not things you cannot do or be, which is a good approach. kevin
