<li class="section--paragraph"><?php echo $l->t('<b>Contributors</b>, or those who add value to the project through improving Nextcloud software and its services');?></li>
<li class="section--paragraph"><?php echo $l->t('<b>Users</b>, or those who add value to the project through their support as consumers of Nextcloud software');?></li>

Leaders of any group, such as moderators of mailing lists, IRC channels, forums, etc., will exercise the right to suspend access to any person who persistently breaks our shared Code of Conduct.');?></p>
<h2 class="section--paragraph__tittle"><?php echo $l->t('Be considerate');?></h2>
<p class="section--paragraph"><?php echo $l->t('Your actions and work will affect and be used by other people and you in turn will depend on the work and actions of others. Any decision you take will affect other community members, and we expect you to take those consequences into account when making decisions.');?></p>
<p class="section--paragraph"><?php echo $l->t('As a contributor, ensure that you give full credit for the work of others and bear in mind how your changes affect others. It is also expected that you try to follow the development schedule and guidelines.');?></p>
<p class="section--paragraph"><?php echo $l->t('As a user, remember that contributors work hard on their part of Nextcloud and take great pride in it. If you are frustrated your problems are more likely to be resolved if you can give accurate and well-mannered information to all concerned.');?></p>
<h2 class="section--paragraph__tittle"><?php echo $l->t('Be respectful');?></h2>
<p class="section--paragraph"><?php echo $l->t('In order for the Nextcloud community to stay healthy its members must feel comfortable and accepted. Treating one another with respect is absolutely necessary for this. In a disagreement, in the first instance assume that people mean well.');?></p>
<p class="section--paragraph"><?php echo $l->t('We do not tolerate personal attacks, racism, sexism or any other form of discrimination. Disagreement is inevitable, from time to time, but respect for the views of others will go a long way to winning respect for your own view.');?></p>
<p class="section--paragraph"><?php echo $l->t('Respecting other people, their work, their contributions and assuming well-meaning motivation will make community members feel comfortable and safe and will result in motivation and productivity.');?></p>
<p class="section--paragraph"><?php echo $l->t('We expect members of our community to be respectful when dealing with other contributors, users and communities. Remember that Nextcloud is an international project and that you may be unaware of important aspects of other cultures.');?></p>
<h2 class="section--paragraph__tittle"><?php echo $l->t('Be collaborative');?></h2>
<p class="section--paragraph"><?php echo $l->t('The Free Software Movement depends on collaboration: it helps limit duplication of effort while improving the quality of the software produced. In order to avoid misunderstanding, try to be clear and concise when requesting help or giving it. Remember it is easy to misunderstand emails (especially when they are not written in your mother tongue). Ask for clarifications if unsure how something is meant; remember the first rule - assume in the first instance that people mean well.');?></p>
<p class="section--paragraph"><?php echo $l->t('As a contributor, you should aim to collaborate with other community members, as well as with other communities that are interested in or depend on the work you do. Your work should be transparent and be fed back into the community when available, not just when Nextcloud releases. If you wish to work on something new in existing projects, keep those projects informed of your ideas and progress.');?></p>
<p class="section--paragraph"><?php echo $l->t('It may not always be possible to reach consensus on the implementation of an idea, so don\'t feel obliged to achieve this before you begin. However, always ensure that you keep the outside world informed of your work, and publish it in a way that allows outsiders to test, discuss and contribute to your efforts.');?></p>
<p class="section--paragraph"><?php echo $l->t('Contributors on every project come and go. When you leave or disengage from the project, in whole or in part, you should do so with pride about what you have achieved and by acting responsibly towards others who come after you to continue the project.');?></p>
<p class="section--paragraph"><?php echo $l->t('As a user, your feedback is important, as is its form. Poorly thought out comments can cause pain and the demotivation of other community members, but considerate discussion of problems can bring positive results. An encouraging word works wonders.');?></p>
<h2 class="section--paragraph__tittle"><?php echo $l->t('Be pragmatic');?></h2>
<p class="section--paragraph"><?php echo $l->t('Nextcloud is a pragmatic community. We value tangible results over having the last word in a discussion. We defend our core values like freedom and respectful collaboration, but we don\'t let arguments about minor issues get in the way of achieving more important results.');?></p>
<p class="section--paragraph"><?php echo $l->t('We are open to suggestions and welcome solutions regardless of their origin. When in doubt support a solution which helps getting things done over one which has theoretical merits, but isn\'t being worked on. Use the tools and methods which help getting the job done. Let decisions be taken by those who do the work.');?></p>
<h2 class="section--paragraph__tittle"><?php echo $l->t('Support others in the community');?></h2>
<p class="section--paragraph"><?php echo $l->t('Our community is made strong by mutual respect, collaboration and pragmatic, responsible behavior. Sometimes there are situations where this has to be defended and other community members need help.');?></p>
<p class="section--paragraph"><?php echo $l->t('If you witness others being attacked, think first about how you can offer them personal support. If you feel that the situation is beyond your ability to help individually, go privately to the victim and ask if some form of official intervention is needed.');?></p>
<p class="section--paragraph"><?php echo $l->t('Similarly you should support anyone who appears to be in danger of burning out, either through work-related stress or
personal problems.');?></p>
<p class="section--paragraph"><?php echo $l->t('When problems do arise, consider respectfully reminding those involved of our shared Code of Conduct as a first action. Leaders are defined by their actions, and can help set a good example by working to resolve issues in the spirit of this Code of Conduct before they escalate.');?></p>
<h2 class="section--paragraph__tittle"><?php echo $l->t('Get support from others in the community');?></h2>
<p class="section--paragraph"><?php echo $l->t('Disagreements, both political and technical, happen all the time. Our community is no exception to the rule. The goal is not to avoid disagreements or differing views but to resolve them constructively. You should turn to the community to seek advice and to resolve disagreements and where possible consult the team most directly involved.');?></p>
<p class="section--paragraph"><?php echo $l->t('Think deeply before turning a disagreement into a public dispute. If necessary request mediation, trying to resolve differences in a less highly-emotional medium. If you do feel that you or your work is being attacked, take your time to breathe through before writing heated replies. Consider a 24 hour moratorium if emotional language is being used - a cooling off period is sometimes all that is needed. If you really want to go a different way, then we encourage you to publish your ideas and your work, so that it can be tried and tested.');?></p>
