Hi Anthony,

Presented for your consideration... PHP Contributor Etiquette
<http://cerebriform.blogspot.com/2016/01/php-contributor-etiquette.html>:

PHP Contributor Etiquette

PHP exists because programmers, admins, and writers from all over the world
volunteer their time and talent. Through mostly digital media, these
volunteers collaborate to improve PHP. It's a social system revolving
around intensely technical details. Like any social setting, there is a
need to define the code of ethical behavior and conventions of
communication. Our etiquette aims to foster an environment where all voices
are welcomed and heard:
(I) You are a contributor to, and representative of, PHP if you:

   - Join any of the PHP communication channels (mailing lists, IRC
   channels, Twitter feeds, or Facebook group) and start or reply to a
   conversation.
   - Post comments on php.net or bug/feature requests on bugs.php.net.
   - Submit comments, issues, or patches to PHP or its extensions through
   Github.
   - Attend any conference authorized to use the PHP logo.

(II) As a contributor to PHP, you have the *right* to:

   - Participate in conversations without fear of harassment
   - Present your thoughts and ideas
   - Submit changes to PHP, its extensions, and documentation
   - Walk away (both in person and digitally)
   - Become a community moderator through the vote of other collaborators

(III) As a representative of PHP, you are *responsible* for:

   - Your contributions:
      - Adhere to submission guidelines
      - Timely respond to inquiries about your submissions
   - Your words:
      - Be understanding: everyone's perspective is different
      - Be polite
      <http://www.londonschool.com/language-talk/language-tips/5-tips-for-polite-and-diplomatic-language/>
      - Be concise
      <https://oilpatchwriting.wordpress.com/2011/04/14/the-five-cs-of-writing-%E2%80%93-part-3-conciseness/>
      - Discuss the position, not the person
      <http://www.nizkor.org/features/fallacies/ad-hominem.html>
   - Your behavior:
      - Actively listen
      <http://www.skillsyouneed.com/ips/active-listening.html> to those who
      are speaking
      - Affirm what you hear
      - Remain calm (strive for equanimity
      <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equanimity>)
      - Keep your voice down (NO CAPS)
      - Stay out of other's personal space
      <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proxemics#Personal_space>
      - Heed the advice of community moderators

Community moderators are stewards of the community's interest in
collaboration. They proactively encourage collaborators to adhere to our
etiquette. They provide advice and guidance to individuals and mediate
dispute between collaborators. They listen without judging. They keep
specific details in confidence.


To reach a moderator, email moderators@php.net.


To become a moderator, email moderators@php.net. In your own words,
describe why you want to moderate (this your purpose statement). Include a
bio. Existing community moderators will help you shape and polish your
purpose statement and bio, then present your application for an anonymous
vote. With a 4/5 confidence, you will become a community moderator. You may
request a copy of the tally, with specific email addresses scrubbed.


Cheers,

bishop
