It may have been in the past, it may still be at times now, however since recently rejoining the channel I am yet to see any such behavior which makes it very hard to take any action. Even the loose example I gave on this list is years old at this point and not something I have personally seen recently.
If you or anyone else have any RECENT examples of such behavior please email them to board@ so that action can be taken as appropriate. Currently we don't have any concrete examples and therefore can't do much other then monitor the situation and hope that things stay pleasant.
If they do not then of course we will actually be able to take action.
Simon, The RECENT behaviour I have issue with is as follows: Your suggestion in this discussion that unacceptable tone between “long running friends” is somehow acceptable. Also Your failure to address the concerns of our moderators in this thread that you are not supporting them as a Board member. Our CoC should be applied consistently or not at all. This is a topic that has already been long learned by the Board. They once trod the path of holding some members to stricter standards than others just because some members have a higher public profile. As one of those with such a profile, I found it grossly unfair that I had to be more careful with what I said in _any_ (not just openSUSE) venues or else risk the wrath of the Board. Given the Board made it clear at the time that they wouldn’t be lowering the standards I have to adhere to (rightly so I might add) the only satisfactory conclusion was the premise that all future cases would be treated to that same strict standard. That is how our moderators operate They deserve your support, or the project deserves a better Board -- Richard Brown Distributions Architect SUSE Software Solutions Germany GmbH, Frankenstraße 146, D-90461 Nuremberg, Germany (HRB 36809, AG Nürnberg) Managing Directors/Geschäftsführer: Ivo Totev, Andrew McDonald, Werner Knoblich
