AI summary

This proposal suggests that Yearn, a decentralized finance protocol, adopt a standard Code of Conduct called the Contributor Covenant. This code would apply to all Yearn contributors across its various platforms like repositories, forums, chats, and events. The goal is to create clear guidelines for community behavior and empower moderators to enforce these rules consistently and independently from project leadership.

Impact

If this proposal passes, Yearn's community will have a defined set of behavioral expectations, making moderation more transparent and less arbitrary. This benefits community members by clarifying acceptable conduct and benefits moderators by providing a framework for independent decision-making. There are no direct financial implications or specific groups that would lose out.

Summary:

  • Adopt a standard code of conduct template across the entire project.
  • Encourage moderators to organise their own governance independent of project leadership.

Abstract:

In order to nurture its growing community, and to make it easier to moderate in a fair and predictable manner, Yearn should adopt a project-wide code of conduct.

Instead of reinventing the wheel, adopt a standard that is already used by large open sources projects such as Golang, Linux, React, Vue.js, and many more.
