Create a default code-of-conduct for the org

Open ericwb opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

GitHub now supports a way to create default community files for the entire org (PyCQA in this case). This is a great way to establish a common code-of-conduct if one is not set for one of the repos in PyCQA. And in some cases, a repo may want to just default to the org level as the code-of-conduct is updated with new versions. Other default files can be added as well, but I think the CoC provides the most value right now. Here is the GitHub documentation on such:

https://docs.github.com/en/communities/setting-up-your-project-for-healthy-contributions/creating-a-default-community-health-file

The one problem I can foresee being an issue for PyCQA is that its current code-of-conduct is an RST file instead of markdown.

By the way, maybe this issue isn't strictly on the meta repo since in order to support default files, a new repo called ".github" would need to be created.

The current CoC is in RST to be included easily in Sphinx docs. I suspect GitHub documents just .md but would support .rst too
