Hi community! The Apache Software Foundation has a foundation-wide Code of Conduct written up (https://www.apache.org/foundation/policies/conduct), and I believe the Lucene and Solr communities would benefit from explicitly adopting it for our projects. This is an example of how HBase has done so: https://hbase.apache.org/coc.html
When it comes to email communication in particular, I find this etiquette from ComDev helpful: https://community.apache.org/contributors/etiquette. Let's link to it as well. Finally, it could be helpful to also call out http://theapacheway.com/ or a similar resource about The Apache Way. Please see my early attempt at including CoC in the new Solr webpage draft: https://lucene-solrtlp.staged.apache.org/community.html#code-of-conduct I plan to add a similar section or page to the Lucene site. Appreciate your feedback on this. Our discussions sometimes heat up, which is not uncommon from time to time. But perhaps reminding ourselves about The Apache Way, CoC and Etiquette will help each of us adopting healthier practices in writing emails, choosing our words wisely etc. I know it helps for me.
