Between these two I still prefer my wording here because it encompasses all personal attacks regardless of topic or type and avoids hot-button words that distract from the point and can be used for lawyering. It also emphasizes the desired behavior instead, that criticism should be about the technical merit of the topic. "Don't be a jerk, and stick to the code." Maybe even rewording it to be a positive instead of a negative would improve it further. "A safe, respectful, productive and collaborative environment is one that focuses on the technical merit of ideas and solutions rather than on the person behind them." -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
