Linux Kernel Code of Conduct Committee: September 30, 2024

In the period of April 1, 2024 through September 30, 2024, the Code of
Conduct Committee received the following reports:

Unacceptable behavior or comments in email: 2

The result of the investigation of report 1:
  - Education and coaching on maintainers' right to accept or reject
    patches. Clarifying the expectations that developers can't demand
    their patches to be reviewed and/or accepted by the community.

    The report was about a developer demanding their patch to be accepted
    even after repeated attempts by maintainers advising the developer
    to understand the development process.

The result of the investigation report 2:
  - Resolved with a public response to the violator on the behavior and
    following up with conversation.

    Education and coaching in email and conversation about how the behavior
    and language used won't promote respectful and productive discussions
    and that it is detrimental to the health of the community.

    - We are continuing to monitor the situation.
