This approach gives people more +control over the outcome of their dispute. + +How we resolve conflicts +------------------------ + +If you are experiencing conflict, please consider first addressing the +perceived conflict directly with other involved parties, preferably through +a real-time medium such as IRC. You could also try to get a third-party (e.g. +a mutual friend, and/or someone with background on the issue, but not +involved in the conflict) to intercede or mediate. + +If this fails or if you do not feel comfortable proceeding this way, or +if the problem requires immediate escalation, report the issue to the QEMU +leadership committee by sending an email to qemu@sfconservancy.org, providing +references to the misconduct. +For very urgent topics, you can also inform one or more members through IRC. +The up-to-date list of members is `available on the QEMU wiki +<https://wiki.qemu.org/Conservancy>`__. + +Your report will be treated confidentially by the leadership committee and +not be published without your agreement. The QEMU leadership committee will +then do its best to review the incident in a timely manner, and will either +seek further information, or will make a determination on next steps. + +Remedies +-------- + +Escalating an issue to the QEMU leadership committee may result in actions +impacting one or more involved parties. In the event the leadership +committee has to intervene, here are some of the ways they might respond: + +1. Take no action. For example, if the leadership committee determines + the complaint has not been substantiated or is being made in bad faith, + or if it is deemed to be outside its purview. + +2. A private reprimand, explaining the consequences of continued behavior, + to one or more involved individuals. + +3. A private reprimand and request for a private or public apology + +4. A public reprimand and request for a public apology + +5. A public reprimand plus a mandatory cooling off period. The cooling + off period may require, for example, one or more of the following: + abstaining from maintainer duties; not interacting with people involved, + including unsolicited interaction with those enforcing the guidelines + and interaction on social media; being denied participation to in-person + events. The cooling off period is voluntary but may escalate to a + temporary ban in order to enforce it. + +6. A temporary or permanent ban from some or all current and future QEMU + spaces (mailing lists, IRC, wiki, etc.), possibly including in-person + events. + +In the event of severe harassment, the leadership committee may advise that +the matter be escalated to the relevant local law enforcement agency. It +is however not the role of the leadership committee to initiate contact +with law enforcement on behalf of any of the community members involved +in an incident. + +Sources +------- + +This document was developed based on the `Drupal Conflict Resolution +Policy and Process <https://www.drupal.org/conflict-resolution>`__ +and the `Mozilla Consequence Ladder +<https://github.com/mozilla/diversity/blob/master/code-of-conduct-enforcement/consequence-ladder.md>`__ |
