I have taken a huge step away from the project over the last couple of years, because as far as I can tell the CoC doesn't seem to matter to most of the project.
openSUSE, like the rest of the tech world would love to pretend and believe it is open and welcoming. But, it's not. It is, of course, if you're the right kind of person.
most of the WORLD has no idea of your character until you have interacted with them. perhaps you have failed to make a positive impression.
If you're not? Well then. The project will accept your contributions, if it must. It'll accept you as a member... After a LOT of questioning. But, no, it doesn't really want you around.
odd that. only question I was presented was how I contributed. perhaps I should take that a being intrusive and objectionable.
a glowing recommendation if I have ever heard one. wearing chips instead of epaulets? the chips do not help.
Thanks Patrick, I'm glad that you're able to decide that only your personal experiences and/or perspective are valid, and anybody that has seen things otherwise is just a whiner, or has a chip on their shoulder.
my "personal" EXPERIENCE was only provided and my personal feelings have not every been the subject of conversation here past others speculation and are really not anyone's business. and your assumptions are just that and you own them.
Very constructive and helpful.
