What we believe in and how we act

• In the interest of fostering an open and welcoming environment, we as contributors and maintainers pledge to making participation in our project and our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body size, disability, ethnicity, gender identity and expression, level of experience, nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and orientation. We welcome people regardless of these or other attributes.

• Our community is based on mutual respect, tolerance, and encouragement.

• We believe that a diverse community where people treat each other with respect is stronger, more vibrant and has more potential contributors and more sources for ideas. We aim for more diversity.

• We are kind, welcoming and courteous to everyone.

• We are respectful of others, their positions, their skills, their commitments and their efforts.

• We are attentive in our communications, whether in person or online, and we are tactful and respectful when approaching differing views and experiences.

• We are aware that language shapes reality. Thus, we use inclusive, gender-neutral language in the documents we provide and when we talk to people. When referring to a group of people, we aim to use gender-neutral terms like "team", "folks" or "everyone". 1

• We respect that people have differences of opinion and criticize constructively.
