Re: [cncf-gb] Formation of CNCF CoC Update Working Group
Q: Will this Working Group be held in an open forum similar to other CNCF Working Groups or is this suggesting a closed group? A: We are revisiting the composition of this WG, please stay tuned for an alternate proposal. Q: The representatives of the Code of Conduct Working Group - are they voting members and others (non-reps) are still able to participate? A: With a new alternate composition of the WG, yes we will enable this. Q: Again, who qualifies as an 'External Advisor' - and who selects the 'External Advisors'? A: At the moment we have one which is Joanna Lee [1], who is helping us. I will let CNCF folks answer how Joanna came to be involved. from what i know, Joanna has been helping the GB meetings etc before and was available to help us with this. Hoping this helps Karena.

[cncf-gb] Formation of CNCF CoC Update Working Group
Folks, FYI. Thanks for all the feedback so far on the WG structure! Please see the update from Arun. -- Dims ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Gupta, Arun <arun.gupta@...> Date: Mon, Jun 13, 2022 at 9:22 PM Subject: Re: [cncf-gb] Formation of CNCF CoC Update Working Group To: cncf-gb <cncf-gb@...> Cc: Taylor Waggoner <twaggoner@...> To members of the CNCF Governing Board:
We have received a lot of feedback on the proposed Working Group structure. We are taking that into consideration to ensure that there is diversity and inclusion of people and opinions. We appreciate your patience while this is being worked upon. Please stay tuned.

From:
cncf-gb@... <cncf-gb@...> on behalf of Gupta, Arun <arun.gupta@...> To members of the CNCF Governing Board:
There has been some confusion regarding eligibility to serve as a representative on the Code of Conduct Working Group, so we’re sharing additional details to clarify. Please see
the updated composition list below with clarifications highlighted:
If you would like to participate and are eligible per the list above, please notify Taylor Waggoner <twaggoner@...> no later than June 14.
We apologize for any confusion.
Sincerely,
Chairs for CNCF Governing Board & Technical Oversight Committee

Sent: Monday, June 6, 2022 5:50 PM To: cncf-gb <cncf-gb@...> Cc: Taylor Waggoner <twaggoner@...> Subject: [cncf-gb] Formation of CNCF CoC Update Working Group
To members of the CNCF Governing Board:
At KubeCon EU a few weeks ago, CNCF community members and staff came together to discuss making improvements to CNCF’s Code of Conduct (CoC) processes. CoC process updates will happen in several phases, as described in our recent blog post on Upcoming Code of Conduct Updates at CNCF. As one important step forward, we are now forming a CNCF Code of Conduct Update Working Group (WG) to continue developing and refining a set of proposed new processes and documentation. Many thanks to those who have already been working on proposals that will help us move forward.
The intended output of this WG is a set of updated policies that can be submitted to the appropriate governing body* for approval, including: · Improvements to the CNCF Code of Conduct · Charter for a new CNCF CoC Committee · Updated policies regarding communication, confidentiality, & transparency · Updated conflict of interest policy · Written policy outlining who has jurisdiction of which incidents (LF Events, CNCF CoC Committee, or project-level CoC Committee)
Although CNCF has already been operating in accordance with policies of the types listed above, we want to update and better document them through a collaborative community process.
*Updates to the Code of Conduct must be approved by the TOC (CNCF Charter §13), but creation of a CoC Committee to handle CoC incident response & resolution must be approved by the Governing Board (CNCF Charter §5(d)(vii)).
We are seeking Working Group participants from the following roles:
If you are an active Incubated or Graduated Maintainer or belong to one of the governing bodies listed above, and you would like to participate in the Working Group, please notify Taylor Waggoner <twaggoner@...> no later than June 14. If there are more volunteers from a governing body than seats allocated, the governing body will select its representative. The time commitment for WG participants would be 3-6 hours per month for a total of 4-6 months. The WG will have 2 co-chairs, one from TOC and one from the GB side to lead meetings, facilitate consensus, etc.
Feedback from the broader community as well as the Governing Board and TOC will be solicited on a regular basis. Anyone in the community is welcome to submit proposals (PRs on Github) and may be invited to a WG meeting to present it.
The WG will use a private slack and a public github repository for formalizing content. We will schedule the first WG meeting shortly after the WG participants are confirmed.
Sincerely,
Chairs for CNCF Governing Board & Technical Oversight Committee

Re: [cncf-gb] Formation of CNCF CoC Update Working Group
Dawn Foster
Hi all,
I’m concerned that limiting this to TAG Leadership puts even more work on already overloaded individuals. I know that as a TAG Leader, I personally don’t have the bandwidth to attend and participate in yet another WG.
It would be much better if the TAGs could select someone who is passionate about the topic and has the relevant expertise to participate, regardless of whether they are a TAG leader. This will result better outcomes for the CoC Working Group because we can get the right people involved who have the expertise, time, and passion for the topic.
Cheers,
From:
cncf-toc@... <cncf-toc@...> on behalf of Arun Gupta via lists.cncf.io <arun.gupta=gmail.com@...> Let me provide some more color here.
This Working Group is a "bootstrap committee" approach that will layout the foundation for CNCF CoCC. The WG is intentionally designed to include a wide range of voices across many projects, not just Kubernetes. This approach is not very different from k8s CoCC bootstrapping process https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/committee-code-of-conduct/bootstrapping-process.md. The only difference is it needs to provide an equal voice to 120+ projects across the board.
More than 500 maintainers listed at https://github.com/cncf/foundation/blob/main/project-maintainers.csv (only incubation and graduated projects) will be allowed to participate in this WG. This ensures diversity and inclusion in the WG from across the community. We don't know how many maintainers will join but also want to make sure the group size is manageable. We also want to make sure that all voices are heard.
The group is critical that we'd like the TAG leadership, as opposed to a delegate, to be represented here directly.
Anybody in the community would be allowed to share their proposals by sending a PR to a GH repo. We are in the process of creating this GH repo and will report back once its done. I personally encourage everybody here that cares about this topic to submit their thoughts there.
Thanks for your patience and understanding while we work through the process.
Thanks Arun

Re: [cncf-gb] Formation of CNCF CoC Update Working Group
Libby Meren
Agree with Aeva and others’ comments. The community should participate in defining the CoC, and be part of selecting the people responsible for representing them in maintaining the CoC.

And, I struggle to understand defining a CoC committee that isn’t inclusive and which prioritizes representation. That seems wholly antithetical to the purpose of a CoC and the values of the foundation. Thanks, Libby On 12 Jun 2022, at 12:16 pm, Frederick Kautz <frederick@...> wrote:

Re: [cncf-gb] Formation of CNCF CoC Update Working Group
Perhaps we can separate out participation from acceptance? I don’t feel comfortable with a community code of conduct not including the community, but also think many of us will acknowledge that some group of people need to be responsible for reviewing, accepting and merging changes. I recommend treating it like any other open source project. Keep the code public in git, hold public reviews, and merge changes over time after discussing and general acceptance.

+1 to the concerns which Stephen and Josh have articulated. There were several other folks attending the BoF in Valencia who have subject expertise and volunteered to help -- but who have been excluded by this framework. I have been leading a lot of the work on the Kubernetes Code of Conduct Committee's evolution since 2019, and have continued to support up-leveling of policy changes even after my term ended. Particularly given the clarification to this election process, it is evident that I am being excluded from this WG -- even though it is chartered to continue my work. For context, I am both a Board Alternate and an Emeritus k8s CoCC member. So. What is the goal of a representational Working Group that excludes the domain experts?
