1. I agree to abide by the terms and spirit of the W3C Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct - https://www.w3.org/policies/code-of-conduct/
2. I agree to describe media that I post, because alt text helps everyone, *especially* but not only the visually impaired, by clarifying intended meaning, saying a bit about the poster's personality, or even providing metadata if the media does not load.
3. I agree to fill out my bio as soon as possible after joining this instance.
4. I agree to stay mainly on topic for this instance which is around activities of the World Wide Web Consortium: Web standardization
5. I agree to tread lightly and dive only sparingly in sensitive content and potentially upsetting or triggering topics such as violence, graphic or adult content, politics, religion, etc.
6. If I can't uphold rule #5, I agree to hide behind a Content Wrapper (CW) sensitive content and potentially upsetting or triggering topics such as violence, graphic or adult content, politics, religion, food, eye contact, critters, or whether you use emacs or vi.
7. Please be kind :) Your interactions go to real people who deeply care and do their best. Please be curious, not critical.
