Hello,
Realistically, that is not how we operate. Somebody opens a ticket, works on
it, and then posts the result for review. I have found quite a number of
random failures on the buildbot (tagged by the random_fail keyword:
http://trac.sagemath.org/query?keywords=~random_fail) and nobody
Trac tickets and comments, however, are public. Thus, among the many
good questions raised by Thierry which deserve an answer, I am also
interested by the answer to the following question:
I consider myself as a Sage developer, i have never heard about this
initiative before. Could you

Hello guys,
Once more, the rules make a point to enforce politeness but they seem
to avoid things like having the respect to answer a honest question.
Could we thus have an answer to the ones aked by Therry ? Not ignoring
anybody is also part of elementary friendliness.

Collated for ease of reply, though there were also implicit questions and
examples of what was meant in the email.

For example:
- what is our commitment to free software ?
- should we collaborate (fund, advertise,...) with closed proprietary
software ?
- how do we take decisions (equality, transparency, collaboration, taking
care of minorities,...) ?

I have abstained from the thread but read quite a bit of it and I think
that the idea there are really two issues is correct.
I have been thinking for a while but abstained because there is a lot of
stuff already on the thread and we are at a stage where the signal/noise
is quite low. So anyway

In an ideal world I think that a code of conduct would not be necessary.
Sadly, the world is not ideal.
I think that SImon's example of what happened with the German translation
project is a great example of why it would be good to have a code of
conduct: some one's comments turned him off
It had never occurred to me that such a thing would ever be necessary.
Any exclusions should be collective decisions not by some oligarchy,
and should allow for reinstatement if the perpetrators are contrite.

Thanks for the links to the guidelines. It is interesting to see how other
communities handle this.
Dave's question was how situations will be handled when a violation occurs or
that are reported.

To the extent that a code of conduct looks like an attempt to limit
freedom of speech, it may be counterproductive. It is possible to
legislate politeness by moderating newsgroups. I suppose it is
possible to resolve disagreements about the course of open software
development by

I think you misunderstand the motivation for not wanting any published code

Hi
Great to have in place to refer to as an educational guideline (not to be
abused as strict rules).
It could also mention core values of Libre Software, with additional
emphasis on scientific transparency.
