-## Conduct
-
-**Contact**: [rust-mods@rust-lang.org](mailto:rust-mods@rust-lang.org)
-
-* We are committed to providing a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for all, regardless of level of experience,
- gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, personal appearance, body size, race, ethnicity, age,
- religion, nationality, or other similar characteristic.
-* On IRC, please avoid using overtly sexual nicknames or other nicknames that might detract from a friendly, safe and
- welcoming environment for all.
-* Please be kind and courteous. There's no need to be mean or rude.
-* Respect that people have differences of opinion and that every design or implementation choice carries a trade-off and
- numerous costs. There is seldom a right answer.
-* Please keep unstructured critique to a minimum. If you have solid ideas you want to experiment with, make a fork and
- see how it works.
-* We will exclude you from interaction if you insult, demean or harass anyone. That is not welcome behavior. We
- interpret the term "harassment" as including the definition in the <a href="http://citizencodeofconduct.org/">Citizen
- Code of Conduct</a>; if you have any lack of clarity about what might be included in that concept, please read their
- definition. In particular, we don't tolerate behavior that excludes people in socially marginalized groups.
-* Private harassment is also unacceptable. No matter who you are, if you feel you have been or are being harassed or
- made uncomfortable by a community member, please contact one of the channel ops or any of the [Rust moderation
- team][mod_team] immediately. Whether you're a regular contributor or a newcomer, we care about making this community a
- safe place for you and we've got your back.
-* Likewise any spamming, trolling, flaming, baiting or other attention-stealing behavior is not welcome.
-
-## Moderation
-
-
-These are the policies for upholding our community's standards of conduct. If you feel that a thread needs moderation,
-please contact the [Rust moderation team][mod_team].
-
-1. Remarks that violate the Rust standards of conduct, including hateful, hurtful, oppressive, or exclusionary remarks,
- are not allowed. (Cursing is allowed, but never targeting another user, and never in a hateful manner.)
-2. Remarks that moderators find inappropriate, whether listed in the code of conduct or not, are also not allowed.
-3. Moderators will first respond to such remarks with a warning.
-4. If the warning is unheeded, the user will be "kicked," i.e., kicked out of the communication channel to cool off.
-5. If the user comes back and continues to make trouble, they will be banned, i.e., indefinitely excluded.
-6. Moderators may choose at their discretion to un-ban the user if it was a first offense and they offer the offended
- party a genuine apology.
-7. If a moderator bans someone and you think it was unjustified, please take it up with that moderator, or with a
- different moderator, **in private**. Complaints about bans in-channel are not allowed.
-8. Moderators are held to a higher standard than other community members. If a moderator creates an inappropriate
- situation, they should expect less leeway than others.
-
-In the Rust community we strive to go the extra step to look out for each other. Don't just aim to be technically
-unimpeachable, try to be your best self. In particular, avoid flirting with offensive or sensitive issues, particularly
-if they're off-topic; this all too often leads to unnecessary fights, hurt feelings, and damaged trust; worse, it can
-drive people away from the community entirely.
-
-And if someone takes issue with something you said or did, resist the urge to be defensive. Just stop doing what it was
-they complained about and apologize. Even if you feel you were misinterpreted or unfairly accused, chances are good
-there was something you could've communicated better — remember that it's your responsibility to make your fellow
-Rustaceans comfortable. Everyone wants to get along and we are all here first and foremost because we want to talk about
-cool technology. You will find that people will be eager to assume good intent and forgive as long as you earn their
-trust.
-
-The enforcement policies listed above apply to all official Rust venues; including official IRC channels (#rust,
-#rust-internals, #rust-tools, #rust-libs, #rustc, #rust-beginners, #rust-docs, #rust-community, #rust-lang, and #cargo);
-GitHub repositories under rust-lang, rust-lang-nursery, and rust-lang-deprecated; and all forums under rust-lang.org
-(users.rust-lang.org, internals.rust-lang.org). For other projects adopting the Rust Code of Conduct, please contact the
-maintainers of those projects for enforcement. If you wish to use this code of conduct for your own project, consider
-explicitly mentioning your moderation policy or making a copy with your own moderation policy so as to avoid confusion.
