4 Conduct](https://perldoc.perl.org/perlpolicy#STANDARDS-OF-CONDUCT) in the

8 The overarching rule is that participants are expected to **be civil**.
9 It is not enough to be factual. You must also be civil.
10
11 The Standard of Conduct falls under the authority of the
12 [Perl Steering Council](https://perldoc.perl.org/perlgov#The-Steering-Council)
13 and covers activities on the perl5-porters mailing list, the
14 GitHub repository issue/pull-request tracker, and any other venues
15 directly organized on behalf the Perl Steering Council.

17 **NOTE**: The Perl Steering Council operates independently of
18 [The Perl Foundation](https://www.perlfoundation.org/) and other
19 Perl community organizations.  Consult their websites for information on
20 other community codes of conduct.
