# Argonaut Constellation's Code of Conduct

These principles will be proactively enforced in the process of responding to issues, queries, and discussions; though some violations may get missed. If you believe someone is violating the code of conduct, we ask that you report it by emailing [~alcinnz/conduct-violations@todo.argonaut-constellation.org](mailto:~alcinnz/conduct-violations@todo.argonaut-constellation.org).

* **Be considerate.** Your work will be used by other people, and you in turn will depend on the work of others. Any decision you take will affect users and colleagues, and you should take those consequences into account when making decisions. Remember that we're a world-wide community, so you might not be communicating in someone else's primary language.
* **Be respectful.** Not all of us will agree all the time, but disagreement is no excuse for poor behavior and poor manners. We might all experience some frustration now and then, but we cannot allow that frustration to turn into a personal attack. It’s important to remember that a community where people feel uncomfortable or threatened is not a productive one. Members of the Argonaut community should be respectful when dealing with other members as well as with people outside the Argonaut community.
-* **Be careful in the words that you choose.** We are a community of professionals, and we conduct ourselves professionally. Be kind to others. Do not insult or put down other participants. Harassment and other exclusionary behavior aren't acceptable. This includes, but is not limited to:

## Reporting Guidelines
If you believe someone is violating the code of conduct we ask that you report it by emailing [~alcinnz/conduct-violations@todo.argonaut-constellation.org](mailto:~alcinnz/conduct-violations@todo.argonaut-constellation.org). **All reports will be kept confidential.** In some cases we may determine that a public statement will need to be made. If that's the case, the identities of all victims and reporters will remain confidential unless those individuals instruct us otherwise.
-**If you believe anyone is in physical danger, please notify appropriate law enforcement first.**
+**If you believe anyone is in physical danger, please notify appropriate emergancy services first.**
If you are unsure whether the incident is a violation, or whether the space where it happened is covered by this Code of Conduct, we encourage you to still report it. We would much rather have a few extra reports where we decide to take no action, rather than miss a report of an actual violation. We do not look negatively on you if we find the incident is not a violation. And knowing about incidents that are not violations, or happen outside our spaces, can also help us to improve the Code of Conduct or the processes surrounding it.

Once we've determined our final action, we'll contact the original reporter to let them know what action (if any) we'll be taking. We'll take into account feedback from the reporter on the appropriateness of our response, but we don't guarantee we'll act on it.
