A very tall order, but if you could meet all of those rules you would certainly be the exact kind of person I would hope to run into when contributing to an open-source community <3


I completely agree. Especially with this:

> This rule is strict, and none are able to comply perfectly. Grace is readily granted for minor transgressions.

I'm an atheist. And yet, despite the explicit religious tone, I think this is one of the best codes of conduct I've ever seen. I'd love to see someone write the equivalent document using something less religious, like Aurelius's Meditations as the base.


As a devout Christian (who really does like this Code of Conduct) I would also enjoy seeing a code of conduct based on Meditations.

I applaud your good taste in literature.


The handbook of Epictetus might fit that bill:

Although it's not as compact as Sqlite's CoC.
