-# Parsl Code of Conduct
-
-## Our Pledge
-
-In the interest of fostering an open and welcoming environment, we as
-contributors and maintainers pledge to making participation in our project and
-our community a harassment-free and bullying-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body
-size, disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender identity and expression,
-level of experience, education, socio-economic status, nationality, personal
-appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.
-
-Discussions relating to pros/cons of various technologies, programming languages, and so on are welcome,
-but these should be done with respect, taking proactive measure to ensure that all participants are heard
-and feel confident that they can freely express their opinions.
-
-We pledge to welcome questions and answer them respectfully, paying particular attention to those new to
-the community. We pledge to provide respectful criticisms and feedback in forums, especially in discussion
-threads resulting from code contributions.
-
-We pledge to be conscientious of the perceptions of the wider community and to respond to criticism respectfully.
-We will strive to model behaviors that encourage productive debate and disagreement, both within our community
-and where we are criticized. We will treat those outside our community with the same respect as people within
-our community.
-
-We pledge to help the entire community follow the code of conduct, and to not remain silent when we see violations
-of the code of conduct. We will take action when members of our community violate this code such as contacting
-parsl-coc@googlegroups.com (all emails sent to this address will be treated with the strictest confidence)
-or talking privately with the person.
-
-## Our Standards
-
-Examples of behavior that contributes to creating a positive environment
-include:
-
-* Using welcoming and inclusive language
-* Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences
-* Gracefully accepting constructive criticism
-* Focusing on what is best for the community
-* Showing empathy towards other community members
-* Respecting the work of others by recognizing acknowledgment/citation requests of original authors
-* Being explicit about how we want our own work to be cited or acknowledged
-
-Examples of unacceptable behavior by participants include:

-* Trolling, insulting/derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
-* Public or private harassment
-* Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or electronic
- address, without explicit permission
-* Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a
- professional setting
-
-## Our Responsibilities
-
-Project maintainers are responsible for clarifying the standards of acceptable
-behavior and are expected to take appropriate and fair corrective action in
-response to any instances of unacceptable behavior.
-
-Project maintainers have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or
-reject comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions
-that are not aligned to this Code of Conduct, or to ban temporarily or
-permanently any contributor for other behaviors that they deem inappropriate,
-threatening, offensive, or harmful.
-
-## Scope
-
-This Code of Conduct applies both within project spaces and in public spaces
-when an individual is representing the project or its community. Examples of
-representing a project or community include using an official project e-mail
-address, posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed
-representative at an online or offline event. Representation of a project may be
-further defined and clarified by project maintainers.
-
-## Enforcement
-
-Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
-reported by contacting the project team at parsl-coc@googlegroups.com. All
-complaints will be reviewed and investigated and will result in a response that
-is deemed necessary and appropriate to the circumstances. The project team is
-obligated to maintain confidentiality with regard to the reporter of an incident.
-Further details of specific enforcement policies may be posted separately.
-
-Project maintainers who do not follow or enforce the Code of Conduct in good
-faith may face temporary or permanent repercussions as determined by other
-members of the project's leadership.
