### The LibrePages collective strives to:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- **Be friendly, patient and welcoming.** We strive to be a collective that welcomes and supports people of all backgrounds and identities. This includes, but is not limited to, members of any race, ethnicity, culture, national origin, colour, immigration status, social and economic class, educational level, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, age, size, family status, political belief, religion and mental and physical ability.
|
|||
|
|
- **Be considerate.** Our work will be used by other people, and we in turn will depend on the work of others. Any decision we take will affect users and colleagues, and we should take those consequences into account when making decisions. Remember that we're a world-wide community and we have a global base of users and of contributors. Even if it's not obvious at the time, our contributions to projects managed by the hostea collective will impact the work of others.
|
|||
|
|
- **Be respectful.** Not all of us will agree all the time, but disagreement is no excuse for poor behavior and poor manners. We might all experience some frustration now and then, but we cannot allow that frustration to turn into a personal attack. It’s important to remember that a collective where people feel uncomfortable or threatened is not a productive one. Members of the collective should be respectful when dealing with other contributors as well as with people outside of the collective and with users of the projects managed by LibrePages.
|
|||
|
|
- **Collaborate openly.** Collaboration is central to projects managed by LibrePages and to the larger free software community. This collaboration involves individuals working within teams, cross-project collaboration within LibrePages and working with other projects outside of LibrePages. This collaboration reduces redundancy, and improves the quality of our work. Internally and externally, we should always be open to collaboration. Wherever possible, we should work closely with upstream and downstream projects and others in the free software community to coordinate our technical, advocacy, documentation and other work. Our work must be done transparently and we should involve as many interested parties as early as possible. If we decide to take a different approach than others, we will let them know early, document our work and inform others regularly of our progress. We do not create private forms of communication that take away transparency or exclude other contributors and collaborators.
|
|||
|
|
- **When we disagree, try to understand why.** Disagreements, both social and technical, happen all the time and LibrePages is no exception. It is important that we resolve disagreements and differing views constructively. Remember that we’re different. The strength of LibrePages comes from people with a wide range of backgrounds. Different people have different perspectives on issues. Being unable to understand why someone holds a viewpoint doesn’t mean that they’re wrong.
|
|||
|
|
- **Focus on helping to resolve issues and learning from mistakes.** It is important that we resolve disagreements and differing views constructively and with the help of the collective. When our goals differ dramatically, we encourage the creation of alternative implementations, so that the collective can test new ideas and contribute to the discussion.
|
|||
|
|
- **When we are unsure, we ask for help.** Nobody knows everything, and nobody is expected to be perfect in LibrePages. Asking questions avoids many problems down the road, and so questions are encouraged. Those who are asked questions should be responsive and helpful. However, when asking a question, care must be taken to do so in an appropriate forum.

### We take the following very seriously, and any violations may impact your ability to participate in LibrePages
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- **Be careful with your words and actions.** Do not insult or put down other participants. Harassment and other exclusionary behavior is not acceptable and should be reported. This includes but is not limited to:
|
|||
|
|
- Violent threats or language directed against another person.
|
|||
|
|
- Discriminatory jokes and language.
|
|||
|
|
- Posting sexually suggestive, explicit or violent material.
|
|||
|
|
- Posting (or threatening to post) other people's personally identifying information ("doxing").
|
|||
|
|
- Personal insults, especially those using racist or sexist terms.
|
|||
|
|
- Unwelcome sexual attention.
|
|||
|
|
- Advocating for, or encouraging, any of the above behavior.
|
|||
|
|
- Repeated harassment of others. In general, if someone asks you to stop, then stop.
|
|||
|
|
- **Respect the decision process.** Members of LibrePages should not attempt to manipulate decisons based on consensus or election results. Open debate is welcome, but vote trading, ballot stuffing and other forms of abuse are not acceptable.
