I've been thinking about this and think we might be able to get away |
8 |
with sharing information with the consent of the person involved. |
9 |
That is, when somebody is the subject of a comrel action they would be |
10 |
given the choice of having Gentoo release the information that was |
11 |
shared with them. However, I do not support releasing information |
12 |
when the person who was subject to the complaint does not consent to |
13 |
this. |

15 |
In general though I do not support publicly acknowledging Comrel |
16 |
actions without the consent of the person who was impacted. |

This was inspired in part by this example: |

From what I've been able tell from other distros Gentoo is actually |
22 |
somewhat more open than most of the others in these regards already. |
23 |
Certainly I'm interested in counterexamples but none of the big |
24 |
distros seem to entertain much public debate over individual cases. |

Banning people out should certainly be rare, but when it is warranted |
27 |
I think it is better than the alternative. The usual example of this |
28 |
is Donnie's Assholes are Destroying Your Project talk, which I |
29 |
generally agree with. Clearly not everybody does, and that's ok, just |
30 |
don't vote for me. :) |
