We adhere to the five WordPress meetup rules<\/a>:<\/h3>\n
    \n
  1. WordPress Meetups are for the benefit of the WordPress community as a whole, not specific businesses or individuals. All actions taken as an event organizer are with the best interest of the community in mind.<\/li>\n
  2. Membership in the local meetup group is open to all who wish to join, regardless of ability, skill, financial status or any other criteria.<\/li>\n
  3. Meetups are volunteer-run with volunteer speakers. In cases where a modest attendance fee might be necessary, this fee should only cover the costs of the meetup and shouldn\u2019t be used to pay speakers or organizers.<\/li>\n
  4. Meetup groups allow events to be organized by any reliable\/trusted member of the community.<\/li>\n
  5. Meetups are welcoming places where everyone works to foster an accepting environment which is free of discrimination, incitement to violence, promotion of hate, and general jerk-like behavior.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Purpose<\/h3>\n

    The\u00a0Montr\u00e9al WordPress Community believes our community should be truly open for everyone. As such, we are committed to providing a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for all, regardless of gender, sexual orientation, disability, ethnicity, religion, preferred operating system, programming language, or text editor.<\/p>\n

    This code of conduct outlines our expectations for participant behavior as well as the consequences for unacceptable behavior.<\/p>\n

    We invite all sponsors, volunteers, speakers, attendees, community members and other participants to help us realize a safe and positive experience for everyone.<\/p>\n

    Open Source Citizenship<\/h3>\n

    A supplemental goal of this code of conduct is to increase open source citizenship by encouraging participants to recognize and strengthen the relationships between what we do and the community at large.<\/p>\n

    If you see someone who is making an extra effort to ensure our community is welcoming, friendly, and encourages all participants to contribute to the fullest extent, we want to know.\u00a0Please let one of our organizers\u00a0know about it.<\/p>\n
