= Community Team = == Task description == The Debian Community Team is a group of volunteers working to help make Debian a welcoming place for contributors to collaborate. We're not working alone here - we expect all of Debian's contributors to be part of that. But we're here to help as/when/if things are not working so well. We are the correct people to contact when members of the Debian community want to inform somebody about violations of the [[https://www.debian.org/code_of_conduct|Debian Code of Conduct]] or the [[https://debconf.org/codeofconduct.shtml|DebConf Code of Conduct]]. If you contact us, we promise that we will treat your request with dignity and confidentiality, investigate, and take or propose whatever actions are appropriate. We also act as a point of contact for Debian event organisers who want guidance when setting up a code of conduct or anti-harassment policy. Our primary contact method is via the email alias '''community@debian.org''' == Process == We've started documenting our processes in the wiki - see [[/Process]]. == Delegation == * In April 2020 the Debian Project Leader officially delegated the Community Team. See the [[https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2020/04/msg00005.html|delegation email]] for the full text. * In August 2020 the DPL updated the delegation to add Molly and Sruthi to the list of delegates. See the [[https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2020/08/msg00000.html|delegation email]] for the full text. * In January 2022 the DPL updated the delegation to add Andy Cater to the list of delegates, and acknowledge AndySimpkins and Pierre-Elliott stepping back. See the [[https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2022/01/msg00000.html|delegation email]] for the full text. == Name change == We ''used'' to be called the Anti-Harassment team, but we thought that was not a good name to match up with what we hoped to achieve. We '''do''' also still accept email sent to antiharassment@debian.org, in case people find that address when searching for us. == Current team members == || '''Name''' ||''IRC nick''' || '''Pronouns''' || '''Delegated?''' || || SteveMcIntyre ||Sledge || he/him || yes || || Jean-Philippe Mengual ||texou || he/him || yes || || Luke W.
