With that said, a healthy community must allow for disagreement and debate. We believe that healthy debate and disagreement are essential to a healthy project and community.

<h3 id="spaces">Where does the Code of Conduct apply?</h3>
<p>
If you participate in or contribute to the Go ecosystem in any way,
you are encouraged to follow the Code of Conduct while doing so.
</p>
<p>
Explicit enforcement of the Code of Conduct applies to the
official forums operated by the Go project (“Go spaces”):
</p>
<ul>
<li>The official <a href="https://github.com/golang/">GitHub projects</a>
and <a href="https://go-review.googlesource.com/">code reviews</a>.
<li>The <a href="https://groups.google.com/group/golang-nuts">golang-nuts</a> and
<a href="https://groups.google.com/group/golang-dev">golang-dev</a> mailing lists.
<li>The #go-nuts IRC channel on Freenode.
</ul>
<p>
Other Go groups (such as conferences, meetups, and other unofficial forums) are
encouraged to adopt this Code of Conduct. Those groups must provide their own
moderators and/or working group (see below).

<p>
These actions are explicitly forbidden in Go spaces:
</p>
<ul>
<li>Insulting, demeaning, hateful, or threatening remarks.
<li>Discrimination based on age, disability, gender, nationality, race,
religion, sexuality, or similar personal characteristic.
<li>Bullying or systematic harassment.
<li>Unwelcome sexual advances.
<li>Incitement to any of these.
</ul>
<h2 id="moderation">Moderation</h2>
<p>
The Go spaces are not free speech venues; they are for discussion about Go.
Each of these spaces have their own moderators.
</p>
<p>
When using the official Go spaces you should act in the spirit of the “Gopher
values”.
If a reported conflict cannot be resolved amicably, the CoC Working Group
may make a recommendation to the relevant forum moderators.
</p>
<p> <h3 id="our-pledge">Our Pledge</h3>
CoC Working Group members and forum moderators are held to a higher standard than other community members.
If a working group member or moderator creates an inappropriate situation, they
should expect less leeway than others, and should expect to be removed from
their position if they cannot adhere to the CoC.

<p> <p>Examples of unacceptable behavior by participants include:</p>

<a href="https://golang.org/s/proposal-process">change proposal process</a>. offensive, or harmful.</p>
</p>
<h3 id="scope">Scope</h3>
<p>This Code of Conduct applies both within project spaces and in public spaces
when an individual is representing the project or its community. Examples of
representing a project or community include using an official project e-mail
address, posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed
representative at an online or offline event. Representation of a project may be
further defined and clarified by project maintainers.</p>
<p>This Code of Conduct also applies outside the project spaces when the Project
Steward has a reasonable belief that an individual&rsquo;s behavior may have a
negative impact on the project or its community.</p>
<h3 id="conflict-resolution"></a>Conflict Resolution</h3>
<p>We do not believe that all conflict is bad; healthy debate and disagreement
often yield positive results. However, it is never okay to be disrespectful or
to engage in behavior that violates the project’s code of conduct.</p>
<p>If you see someone violating the code of conduct, you are encouraged to address
the behavior directly with those involved. Many issues can be resolved quickly
and easily, and this gives people more control over the outcome of their
dispute. If you are unable to resolve the matter for any reason, or if the
behavior is threatening or harassing, report it. We are dedicated to providing
an environment where participants feel welcome and safe.</p>
<p id="reporting">Reports should be directed to Cassandra Salisbury, the
Go Project Steward, at <i>conduct@golang.org</i>.
It is the Project Steward’s duty to
receive and address reported violations of the code of conduct. They will then
work with a committee consisting of representatives from the Open Source
Programs Office and the Google Open Source Strategy team. If for any reason you
are uncomfortable reaching out the Project Steward, please email
the Google Open Source Programs Office at <i>opensource@google.com</i>.</p>
<p>We will investigate every complaint, but you may not receive a direct response.
We will use our discretion in determining when and how to follow up on reported
incidents, which may range from not taking action to permanent expulsion from
the project and project-sponsored spaces. We will notify the accused of the
report and provide them an opportunity to discuss it before any action is taken.
The identity of the reporter will be omitted from the details of the report
supplied to the accused. In potentially harmful situations, such as ongoing
harassment or threats to anyone&rsquo;s safety, we may take action without notice.</p>
