Does anyone have a background on why these were suddenly needed now, as opposed to for ten years ago?

Posting on a throwaway.

How are the male tears, FreeBSD users? Now that you know your leaders buy into this. You can rest assured if you make a mistweet, you're career membership goes bye bye :)

Case in point, meet our victim: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.os.freebsd.advocacy/5404

I though Randi Harper would be celebrating this. She saw the word "meritocracy" and cringed.

Milo (@nero) from Breitbart supposedly said to have proof @freebsdgirl's coding skills are fictitious. I have yet to see it. My presumption would be her mentor wrote her code.

In any event, I wouldn't recommend going the route of xmj. There are many outside USA who don't understand the intricacies of political correctness. @xmj's departure is a loss to the FreeBSD community, but it was in vain. No one will stick up for a guy in the right, even when the girl is a convicted criminal and troll.

Please take the code of conduct down. I do not consent to control by twitter users.

I was randi's mentor. I did not write any of her code.

I mean, seriously, you think I'm insane enough to want to touch sysinstall?

[–]crest_ 7ポイント8ポイント  (0子コメント)

Ok. I believe you. I needed a lot of eye bleach after a short look at sysinstall.

[–]DStoo[S] 16ポイント17ポイント  (53子コメント)

Can you link to some of her commits? I searched all of FreeBSD's source (Admittedly I did it on GitHub) and couldn't find any source that has her name in it. I saw one commit from years ago and it was just adding a comment: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/head/usr.sbin/sysinstall/install.cfg?r1=209778&r2=209777&pathrev=209778

One commit with C files: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/stable/8/usr.sbin/sysinstall/tcpip.c?r1=208406&r2=208405&pathrev=208406

I don't think github's FreeBSD history goes back this far. I know I've had trouble finding things in there.

Also a lot of randi's patches went into the tree via other people before she had a commit bit -- unlike git, svn doesn't have separate "committed by" vs. "authored by" so it's not always possible to figure out who actually produced a patch.

[–]xmjEE 8ポイント9ポイント  (4子コメント)

Colin, it does.

You're looking for:

https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd/commits?author=randi@freebsd.org

Edit:

I (obviously) agree: the amount of commits she did, or didn't do, does not reflect on her engagement with FreeBSD before that time as source committer.

[–]DStoo[S] 14ポイント15ポイント  (1子コメント)

Cool. I wish she spent more time on FreeBSD and less time on the 'anti-harssment tools' and 'codes of conduct'.

That's a lot of stuff that needed worked on.

Not to mention all the ports that I would like updated that seem to be partially abandoned.

You can always adopt them. I may even be able to teach you a trick or two. ;-)

[–]perciva 3ポイント4ポイント  (1子コメント)

Huh. I know I've had trouble finding people's commits there in the past. Maybe github fixed something, or maybe I made a mistake in my previous searches.

Do you have an estimate to the LOC she's produced?

I'm also not familiar with @freebsd.org e-mail addresses, do you get those for life? I see that she hasn't been an active developer since 2012.

[–]perciva 10ポイント11ポイント  (44子コメント)

Do you have an estimate to the LOC she's produced?

Not a huge number (not sure if more or less than 1000 in the src tree), but that's a misleading way to look at it -- finding the one line which is wrong so you can fix a bug is more work than writing a hundred new lines of code. Randi was doing the "unsexy" bug-fixing work that not nearly enough developers spend time on.

@freebsd.org e-mail addresses, do you get those for life?

I'm sure they can be revoked by core, but I think normal practice is to leave email forwarding set up forever.

I see that she hasn't been an active developer since 2012.

Correct, at Thu May 10 20:13:24 2012 I removed her from the src repository's access file per her request; unfortunately her job was not compatible with making open source contributions at the time, and she has been busy with other projects since then.

[–]angryfuck 17ポイント18ポイント  (28子コメント)

Colin, I'm kind of frustrated. You got me contributing to FreeBSD in the best way I can, by donating money (following your blog posts about donating Tarsnap profits every xmas). I don't donate as much as you but I donate a decent sum in hopes to improve FreeBSD.

I think it is completely fair to consider Randi a FreeBSD developer if she contribute to the code base. I think it would be nice if she was an active developer and I don't think less of her in her pursuits.

But it is hard to not turn a blind eye to her shit-slinging within the FreeBSD community.

Do you think with the new code of conduct should apply to everyone regardless of sex, race, age, etc. as written in the code of conduct itself? If so, do you think the active FreeBSD ports committer that claims harassment from Randi should be taken seriously?

You're not an idiot (for someone that won the Putnam prize at 14), so I ask for an earnest answer from you. I respect your intelligence but I think you're blind to your biases. Fyi, I had the exact opposite situation to you where my mentor went full-SJW (similar to Randi) that I can barely talk with him reasonably anymore.

Also, do you think Amazon s2n supporting a Windows SChannel backend is a good or a bad idea?

Yes.

Everyone who claims to be harassed should be taken seriously. Whether their claims should be accepted at face value is a different question, of course. It's entirely possible for people to feel harassed even though there was no intent to harass them, for example.

One of the major elements of the code of conduct is "Do not take it personally", and I think this is the one people struggle with the most. If you have a lot of people attacking you, it's very easy to fall into the trap of pattern-matching "is disagreeing with me" to "is attacking me". This has happened to me recently when I tried to talk to a SJW on twitter; while I was trying to offer a helpful suggestion, I was immediately labeled a troll, publicly mocked, and blocked.

I have never seen anything from randi which suggests that she is going out looking for people to harass, but there have been times where she has clearly taken comments as personal attacks when my immediate impression (without knowing any back history etc.) was to assume that the comments were entirely benign. I think there's probably room for randi to improve here, but I think we should also cut her a bit of slack; the experiences she has gone through are frankly horrifying, and I think I would probably be equally prone to defensiveness if I had been through the same things.

You're not an idiot (for someone that won the Putnam prize at 14)

Alas, when I was 14 I only came 53rd in North America. I didn't win the contest until I was 18.

Also, do you think Amazon s2n supporting a Windows SChannel backend is a good or a bad idea?

I have no knowledge of SChannel. I mean, literally, I didn't know it existed until you mentioned it just now.

[–]angryfuck 7ポイント8ポイント  (6子コメント)

I have one last follow up question that's tangentially related.

I mostly agree with what you say and looking at the thread I believe the complaint is valid but the supposed evidence of harassment paper thin at best.

Where should FreeBSD draw a line when enforcing code of conduct on activities of FreeBSD community members/developers.

Honestly, I really like the idea of a CoC and I can see a well enforced on easing newcomers into FreeBSD who may seek support or assistance.

What I'm not clear about is when FreeBSD members use social media platforms and how the CoC should be enforced. Some members may have beliefs (religious or otherwise) which may be anti-trans/gay/whatever and discuss it publicly on their own soapbox. Their social network would perhaps include FreeBSD community members who are then offended and upset and these things shouldn't be said when associating yourself with FreeBSD (perhaps in your bio).

In the case of the allegations levied at Randi by the ports committer guy1, most of these are done on Twitter and are unrelated to FreeBSD. I think the claim is however outside the scope of the FreeBSD CoC, and should be handled through private means.

My thoughts on this is: the FreeBSD community shouldn't be policing behaviour and shouldn't be involved in activities that are outside of FreeBSD discussion mediums.

1: I can never remember his name, the omission isn't out of disrespect.

In that case do you feel that it is misleading for her to use her "@freebsd.org" domain name as a trump card in an internet discussion?.

In this case it's misleading to people since most would read that as she's an active developer on FreeBSD when she hasn't been for 3 years. If she's been active on other stuff since then wouldn't it be more relevant to post a more recent e-mail address, domain or project?

She also used to go by sektie@codersluts.net, however when in a discussion that doesn't carry the weight of the FreeBSD project. I feel it is misleading to try and pull that domain out when trying to prove something and not letting her code stand on her own.

[–]perciva 2ポイント3ポイント  (13子コメント)

Not at all. First, if people don't know what having a @freebsd.org email address means, that's their fault. There are people with @freebsd.org email addresses who have never written any code -- because they exclusively do documentation, for example. Second, the fact that randi was a src committer means that she knows far more about what it means to be a FreeBSD src committer than someone who has never been involved with FreeBSD. And third, despite not being an active committer any more, randi is still a valued member of the FreeBSD community.

If she's been active on other stuff since then wouldn't it be more relevant to post a more recent e-mail address, domain or project?

I still use my email address from the university I graduated from 14 years ago. I also use lots of others. I'm sure randi has several email addresses too.

[–]qci 16ポイント17ポイント  (0子コメント)

I have very much respect towards everyone who contributes to FreeBSD.

I talked to Randi only once and she managed to turn the discussion into insults and man-hate within 3 posts (I have been talking about a totally different topic than FreeBSD).

Laughing about me "just being a FreeBSD user" and her "such a great committer" moved me to take a look what she did. About 200 LoC and the biggest commit reverted... in 2010 last commit?! You call this a committer? Come on, really.

Gender does not matter here. I like everyone who contributes. I haven't had any prejudices against Randi, until she began to insult me out of the blue. Now I've blocked her and she blocked me. Everything is fine again.

Serious question: in what sense do you mean that ? What is randi currently doing for the freebsd community ?

Disclaimer: I post in KiA. I was a freebsd user -- from, well 2.0 to 6.0 inclusive -- and wanted to get into it again, but the activism of freebsdgirl last year + the complete lack of reaction from freebsd to the inclusion of the freebsd brand into the worst of online social justice made me reconsider. I know it is a stupid knee-jerk reaction, and never lack an occasion to point how great freebsd is, but I hardly think I am the only one like that.

There are a lot of people that don't know that.

randi is still a valued member of the FreeBSD community.

Code of Conduct aside, what has she done? It's hard to find any good information on Google because it's littered with noise from both sides. I've searched the lists.freebsd.org and most of what I've seen is people asking Randi to stop pushing her agenda.

    This was one of the last interactions on her timeline prior to leaving. By itself, not terrible. But it adds up.

    From the mailing list:

    With this you are setting a dangerous precedent with this issue, where one individual can take more than 400 others hostage and force their - feminist, and beyond that, EXPLICITLY anti-male (cf. Attachments of the original post) - opinion on everyone else, regardless of their country of origin, their personal beliefs, and their own morals.

    [–]trezor2 34ポイント35ポイント  (7子コメント)

    So basically, this code of conduct probably intended to better the environment in which FreeBSD is developed and discussed (after complaints from 1, one!, SJW), is going to do the absolute opposite by creating needless internal polarization.

    Great job. Good thing FreeBSD has enough resources already so that it can waste it on things like this, and compensate for the people who will be leaving over it.</sarcasm>

    I'll have to reconsider my donations if this is how they're going to spend them.

    Good job indeed.

    E-mail them and tell them why. Actually the guy you need to talk to is the founder of What'sApp. He donated $1M last year because of how FreeBSD helped him out of where he was.

    You know, I incorporated my third business yesterday, and I was planning on donating to the FreeBSD foundation this year..

    I have already re-thought my plans for those budgeted funds, and allocated them elsewhere. :-)

    As someone that donates annually to FreeBSD because of Randi's mentor, I refuse to stop. I respect FreeBSD developers and I appreciate the foundation's work in removing obstacles and ensuring the developers can focus on the code.

    I was tempted to contact Ed Maste (as he appears to be responsive regarding my last comments on donation). But I'm unsure if FreeBSD Foundation is involved or has any influence on the code of conduct (and frankly it shouldn't).

    If I remember correctly, we discussed that there was work being done on that code of conduct during one of the many dinners at BSDCan.

    And, for what it's worth - if you read my list post again, you'll find that I very much agree with the code of conduct as long as this very code of conduct protects my rights as an individual. If not, in the danger of repeating myself: it's not worth the paper it's written on.
