[OpenStack Foundation] [Diversity] Diversity & Inclusion WG Meeting 11/2 - Removing Divisive Language
by Amy Marrich 30 Oct '20

30 Oct '20

The Diversity & Inclusion WG will continue working on the OSF's stance on the removal of Divisive Language within the OSF projects. We will be focusing on the creation of possible words to focus on as well as possible replacements[0] as was requested during our Forum session[1]. The WG invites members of all OSF projects to participate in this effort and to join us at our next meeting Monday, November 2nd, at 17:00 UTC which will be held at https://meetpad.opendev.org/osf-diversity-and-inclusion. <https://meetpad.opendev.org/osf-diversity-and-inclusion> If you have any questions please let me and the team know here, on #openstack-diversity on IRC, or you can email me directly. Thanks, Amy Marrich (spotz) 0 - https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/wallaby-ptg-diversity 1- https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/vSummit2020__DivisiveLanguage

[OpenStack Foundation] [PTG] [Diversity] Extra session for Divisive Language discussions
by Amy Marrich 27 Oct '20

27 Oct '20

During the Monday session there were some questions in regards to technical writing and how things should be worded. I have invited Joanne O'Flynn, a Technical Writer from Red Hat to join us on Thursday at 17:00 UTC to help address these questions. This is not a normal PTG time slot but it was the only option due to time zones and already booked sessions for some of the participants from Monday. Thanks, Amy Marrich (spotz)

[OpenStack Foundation] [Diversity][PTG] Diversity and Inclusion WG at the PTG - Divisive Language
by Amy Marrich 23 Oct '20

23 Oct '20

The Diversity and Inclusion WG will be holding a PTG session Monday from 15:00-17:00 UTC. We will be using Meetpad[0] atleast to start but will change to Zoom if needed. Based on feedback [2] during the Forum session we will be working on providing a more comprehensive list of words and possible alternatives vs the original plan to leave this aspect within the technical groups.

[OpenStack Foundation] Divisive Language stance final(?) draft and Forum session
by Amy Marrich 19 Oct '20

19 Oct '20

Hi everyone, Below is what we hope is the final draft of the OSF's stance on Divisive Language. If you have any comments please place them on the etherpad[0] and/or join us this Tuesday during the forum[1]. Please note that decisions related to what words should be replaced with are being left with the project's technical leadership with the knowledge that context is important to determine the best alternative. That said, the Diversity and Inclusion WG will be available to assist these groups. Thanks, Amy Marrich (spotz) 0 - https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/divisivelanguage 1- https://www.openstack.org/summit/2020/summit-schedule/events/24778/divisive… 1a - https://zoom.us/j/94295083896?pwd=VmZCTFN3eERDK1ltRHRyWDl0eG1hZz09 1b - https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/vSummit2020__DivisiveLanguage ------------------ The OpenStack Foundation (OSF) Board of Directors supports removal of wording identified as oppressive, racist and sexist by members of our communities from the software and documentation they produce. While we know there will be challenges, both technical and non-technical, this is an action we feel is important. These efforts are the responsibility of the various technical leadership groups within our communities, and we trust them to make appropriate decisions about applicability, timelines, minimizing impact to users and operators, and choosing the changes that make the most sense for their projects. Contributors will take care to make changes to software in the least disruptive way possible. While standardized wording is a laudable goal, we recognize that different implementation contexts might require different solutions. In many cases the work is also complicated by external dependencies for these projects, and their capacity to make necessary changes before we can implement ours. Terminology to which special attention should be paid includes: 1. The use of "slave," or "master" in reference to slavery-oriented relationships, as is currently found in databases, the domain name system, etc. 1. The terms "blacklist" and "whitelist" in various contexts (which might require a variety of different replacements to make sense for those contexts) 1. The use of "master" in non-slavery-related contexts such as revision control branches and documentation builds (pending feedback from our community members) We shall continue to be vigilant for other language areas that cause challenges and work with the community to evolve this policy.
