Flame Rules Proposal (Respond With Comments)

   - We will not allow anybody to defame another individual by name, on any
   thread, without his permission. Defamation, slander, libel, and harassment
   are illegal in many countries, and the FontForge organization cannot allow
   itself to be involved in such a thing. Legal issues aside, the list must
   provide a safe or at least neutral (non-hostile) environment in order to
   support a healthy exchange of ideas.
   - We will not allow anybody to defame a group that qualifies as a
   protected class in the United States. These classes include race, skin
   color, national origin, sex, and age. The mailing list is hosted in the
   United States, and is subject to the laws thereof.
   - We will not allow any non-hate-speech thread to be used for hate
   speech or non-constructive criticism of any type. The FontForge list is for
   productive discussion of issues relating to FontForge, computer typography,
   and typography in general. We must preserve this function.
   - We will not allow gross obscenities or elevated hate speech on any
   thread unless the subject line includes a tag such as [NSFW] or [mature].
   The list is not necessarily closed to children, and even some adults are
   uncomfortable seeing another person or group viciously attacked. We must
   give them the option of participating in the FontForge community without
   experiencing vicious behavior and vulgarity.
   - In the interest of advancing free speech and of not being seen as
   censoring its critics, the FontForge organization will exercise restraint
   in moderating and blocking mailing list participants, but it will take
   necessary steps to enforce these rules and to protect developers, users,
   and other mailing list subscribers.
