Most 24 of those projects will use our [modified Contributor Covenant][]. 25 26 [may adopt]: https://opensource.google/docs/releasing/preparing/#conduct 27 [modified Contributor Covenant]: https://opensource.google/docs/releasing/template/CODE_OF_CONDUCT/ 28 29 ## Resolve peacefully 30 31 We do not believe that all conflict is necessarily bad; healthy debate and 32 disagreement often yields positive results. However, it is never okay to be 33 disrespectful. 34 35 If you see someone behaving disrespectfully, you are encouraged to address the 36 behavior directly with those involved. Many issues can be resolved quickly and 37 easily, and this gives people more control over the outcome of their dispute. 38 If you are unable to resolve the matter for any reason, or if the behavior is 39 threatening or harassing, report it. We are dedicated to providing an 40 environment where participants feel welcome and safe. 41 42 ## Reporting problems 43 44 Some Google open source projects may adopt a project-specific code of conduct. 45 In those cases, a Google employee will be identified as the Project Steward, 46 who will receive and handle reports of code of conduct violations. In the event 47 that a project hasn’t identified a Project Steward, you can report problems by 48 emailing opensource@google.com. 49 50 We will investigate every complaint, but you may not receive a direct response. 51 We will use our discretion in determining when and how to follow up on reported 52 incidents, which may range from not taking action to permanent expulsion from 53 the project and project-sponsored spaces. We will notify the accused of the 54 report and provide them an opportunity to discuss it before any action is 55 taken. The identity of the reporter will be omitted from the details of the 56 report supplied to the accused. In potentially harmful situations, such as 57 ongoing harassment or threats to anyone's safety, we may take action without 58 notice. 59 60 *This document was adapted from the [IndieWeb Code of Conduct][] and can also 61 be found at <https://opensource.google/conduct/>.* 62 63 [IndieWeb Code of Conduct]: https://indieweb.org/code-of-conduct
