Preamble

In the KDE community, participants from all over the world come together to create Free Software for the desktop. This is made possible by the support, hard work and enthusiasm of thousands of people, including those who create and use KDE software.

This document offers some guidance to ensure KDE participants can cooperate effectively in a positive and inspiring atmosphere, and to explain how together we can strengthen and support each other.

This Code of Conduct is shared by all contributors and users who engage with the KDE team and its community services.

Overview

This Code of Conduct presents a summary of the shared values and “common sense” thinking in our community. The basic social ingredients that hold our project together include:

  • Be considerate
  • Be respectful
  • Be collaborative
  • Be pragmatic
  • Support others in the community
  • Get support from others in the community

Our community is made up of several groups of individuals and organizations which can roughly be divided into two groups:

  • Contributors, or those who add value to the project through improving KDE software and its services
  • Users, or those who add value to the project through their support as consumers of KDE software

This Code of Conduct reflects the agreed standards of behavior for members of the KDE community, in any forum, mailing list, wiki, web site, IRC channel, public meeting or private correspondence within the context of the KDE team and its services. The community acts according to the standards written down in this Code of Conduct and will defend these standards for the benefit of the community. Leaders of any group, such as moderators of mailing lists, IRC channels, forums, etc., will exercise the right to suspend access to any person who persistently breaks our shared Code of Conduct.
