Processes of the CoC Committee

Those policies and proceedings are defined according to the Hosting Policies and build upon them.

Transparency reports

See reports of the X.org board of directors presented at XDC.

Conflict of Interest

If members of the CoC Committee feel out of personal reasons, required by their employer if it involves an employee of the same company, or otherwise conclude there could be a risk of a decision being driven by a Conflict of Interest, they'll recuse themselves from participation and votings in regards to specific incidences.

CoC Committee composition

There shouldn't be more than two members from the same company to avoid the impression of a single company having power over the CoC Committee. There also should be at least 4 members on the Committee at all times.

The CoC Committee should try its best to select those candidates out of potential ones, which would make the team more diverse in terms of represented projects and companies, but also in terms of cultural and social background.

Anybody interested in joining the CoC Committee is free to reach out to any of the current members directly or to write to conduct@lists.freedesktop.org.

It's expected that anybody joining the CoC committee to undergo CoC enforcement training, either the one offered by the Board of Directors or something similar to that.

Each CoC Committee will be listed on the Code of Conduct page including their current relevant affiliation to a company or other institution.

Personal Data Policy

The CoC Committee keeps permanent record of the following:

• Names and handles of persons the CoC Committee took formal actions against
• Formal actions taken (like bans, suspensions, improvement plans) alongside their reasons, duration and date
