[gentoo-council] CoC: informal enforcement

[Donnie Berkholz <dberkholz@gentoo.org>]

Hi all,

I'm proposing to start CoC enforcement in a simple manner that doesn't 
require approval of any sort, and I'd like to discuss it at the council 
meeting to get your feedback.

What I want to do is build a core culture of people who refuse to 
tolerate assholes. We can do this by getting together a small group who 
will reply to any gentoo-dev posts or #gentoo-dev comments by people who 
are being jerks, telling them that they're being a jerk and not replying 
to the substance of the jerk's post at all. Replies to the substance of 
a post would come separately or not at all. Having a group of people 
reply to hostile posters should begin rebuilding a culture that doesn't 
tolerate that type of action.

People who are consistently jerks are incompetent developers and should 
be treated as such.

Thanks,
Donnie
