will have time to make yourself available. You don't have to be a
maintainer to make a difference on the project!
## Docker Community Guidelines
We want to keep the Docker community awesome, growing and collaborative. We
need your help to keep it that way. To help with this we've come up with some
general guidelines for the community as a whole:
* Be nice: Be courteous, respectful and polite to fellow community members: no
regional, racial, gender, or other abuse will be tolerated. We like nice people
way better than mean ones!
* Encourage diversity and participation: Make everyone in our community
feel welcome, regardless of their background and the extent of their
contributions, and do everything possible to encourage participation in
our community.
* Keep it legal: Basically, don't get us in trouble. Share only content that
you own, do not share private or sensitive information, and don't break the
law.
* Stay on topic: Make sure that you are posting to the correct channel
and avoid off-topic discussions. Remember when you update an issue or
respond to an email you are potentially sending to a large number of
people. Please consider this before you update. Also remember that
nobody likes spam.
### Guideline Violations — 3 Strikes Method
The point of this section is not to find opportunities to punish people, but we
do need a fair way to deal with people who are making our community suck.
1. First occurrence: We'll give you a friendly, but public reminder that the
behavior is inappropriate according to our guidelines.
2. Second occurrence: We will send you a private message with a warning that
any additional violations will result in removal from the community.
3. Third occurrence: Depending on the violation, we may need to delete or ban
your account.
**Notes:**
* Obvious spammers are banned on first occurrence. If we don't do this, we'll
have spam all over the place.
* Violations are forgiven after 6 months of good behavior, and we won't
hold a grudge.
* People who commit minor infractions will get some education,
rather than hammering them in the 3 strikes process.
* The rules apply equally to everyone in the community, no matter how
much you've contributed.
* Extreme violations of a threatening, abusive, destructive or illegal nature
will be addressed immediately and are not subject to 3 strikes or
forgiveness.
* Contact james@docker.com to report abuse or appeal violations. In the case of
appeals, we know that mistakes happen, and we'll work with you to come up with
a fair solution if there has been a misunderstanding.
