Change our Code of Conduct

[varjmes]

I think our code of conduct is lacking in several cases. Most notably, our 'enforcement' instructions are very basic. I've started implementing a new code of conduct across my projects that I had a small hand in writing, but it is mainly made by the wealljs community and @zkat. It has really good enforcement instructions, outlines what isn't acceptable in a better way than we do and has good examples of unacceptable behaviour. I think it is is much better than what we currently have.

I propose we change our code of conduct to this. Or use it as a base and modify to our needs if you feel it is lacking.

Also, I noticed that we don't really surface our code of conduct in any of our repositories (it is mentioned once at the bottom of our hoodiehq/hoodie readme, with regards to monetary sponsors). I think we should put the code of conduct in every repo, and link to it at the top of our project READMEs. Although this may be some work, it is a perfect starter PR for a whole host of new contributors (in every repo!)

Thanks for bringing that up. I’ve read both Code of Conducts side-by-side and I agree that the one you linked is much better from my perspective. A particularly like the examples. Being a maintainer that have not yet been in a situation to enforce a CoC, it is great to know that I can refer to them when something comes up. We can extend the examples as needed. I think these examples would be very helpful to on-board new maintainers to Hoodie.

I’m curious to hear what others think.

Yes, absolutely agree.

It's a good step forward!

The changes will also encourage new and old contributors alike to step forward and be more involved and active, as people would be more comfortable in such a well-defined and considerate environment. Not that Hoodie hasn't been a good experience for me uptil now (infact, the best open source experience for me), but this would make things a bit more established.

Thanks @Charlotteis. I have massive respect for the wealljs folks and @zkat too, so can we make sure to credit your hard work in the new Coc? Because this is new version is super valuable imo.

I'll draw up a plan this weekend

Hey @Charlotteis do you still want to incorporate the changes you suggested? I think we are all +1 :)
