1 Hi all,
2
3 I'm proposing to start CoC enforcement in a simple manner that doesn't
4 require approval of any sort, and I'd like to discuss it at the council
5 meeting to get your feedback.
6
7 What I want to do is build a core culture of people who refuse to
8 tolerate assholes. We can do this by getting together a small group who
9 will reply to any gentoo-dev posts or #gentoo-dev comments by people who
10 are being jerks, telling them that they're being a jerk and not replying
11 to the substance of the jerk's post at all. Replies to the substance of
12 a post would come separately or not at all. Having a group of people
13 reply to hostile posters should begin rebuilding a culture that doesn't
14 tolerate that type of action.
15
16 People who are consistently jerks are incompetent developers and should
17 be treated as such.

19 Thanks,
20 Donnie
