You can read it below: - -### Summary - -GNOME creates software for a better world. We achieve this by behaving well towards -each other. - -Therefore this document suggests what we consider ideal behaviour, so you know what -to expect when getting involved in GNOME. This is who we are and what we want to be. -There is no official enforcement of these principles, and this should not be interpreted -like a legal document. - -### Advice - - * **Be respectful and considerate**: Disagreement is no excuse for poor behaviour or personal - attacks. Remember that a community where people feel uncomfortable is not a productive one. - - * **Be patient and generous**: If someone asks for help it is because they need it. Do politely - suggest specific documentation or more appropriate venues where appropriate, but avoid - aggressive or vague responses such as "RTFM". - - * **Assume people mean well**: Remember that decisions are often a difficult choice between - competing priorities. If you disagree, please do so politely. If something seems outrageous, - check that you did not misinterpret it. Ask for clarification, but do not assume the worst. - - * **Try to be concise**: Avoid repeating what has been said already. Making a conversation larger - makes it difficult to follow, and people often feel personally attacked if they receive multiple - messages telling them the same thing. - - -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. - ## About GNOME Calendar Learn more about GNOME Calendar by reading our [HACKING.md](HACKING.md) file.
