Session
In 2022, the Drupal Community Health Team began the process of updating the project's 12-year old code of conduct. This session will provide an overview of the approach the team took to this task, including:
- Incorporating feedback from past community discussions and surveys
- Reviewing codes of conduct from other communities for inspiration
- Prioritizing what elements were important to have in an updated code of conduct
- Ensuring that the updated code of conduct was written in a way that was clear and understandable
- Soliciting input from community stakeholders prior to sharing with the community-at-large
We'll discuss what changes were made, and how the new code of conduct was designed to meet the unique needs of the Drupal project and community.
