- 1827163 3y agoI stopped participating completely in any open source project that has a "code of conduct". To me, open source was all about freedom from such censorship and thought control. And I completely oppose rude and unpleasant behavior in open source, we can handle that by supporting each other and calling it out instead of imposing punitive rules on contributors. Many times these rules attempt to control behavior outside of the project, which smacks of authoritarianism. I'm working on proprietary hardware now.
- epage 3y agoI would instead recommend Josh's version as it covers more events with more context https://hackmd.io/p3VG_bK9TXOvtgh1oA2yZQ?view https://hackmd.io/p3VG_bK9TXOvtgh1oA2yZQ?view I found JT's version lacked some context (e.g. that the 5 people wasn't even half of the whole group) that I think is important for understanding what went on. I misunderstood from their post and I'm fairly familiar with the structure of the Rust organization. disclaimer: I am on the same Rust team as Josh and have some interactions with JT and have respect for both. Granted, I think there are several pieces of context missing for understanding the situation, like when ThePhD asked for reassurances, did that stop at their point of contact or go back to the whole group and had the dissenting voices spoken up before then? Who all knew how cautious ThePhD was being in communicating the experimental nature of their work?
