ODF plugfest

Towards real world interoperability.

Code of conduct ODF Plugfests

During the ODF plugfests we operate under the Chatham House rule.

When a meeting, or part thereof, is held under the Chatham House Rule, participants are free to use the information received, but neither the identity nor the affiliation of the speaker(s), nor that of any other participant, may be revealed.

(http://www.chathamhouse.org/about-us/chathamhouserule)

Also, please bear the following in mind:

Be constructive: you may point out issues in specific implementations in an objective way, but the goal is to improve interoperability, not to start flame wars.
Be open: every implementation contains bugs. If you happen to find issues during the testing, please note down a short summary of it on the wiki. Afterwards you can mark it as fixed, showing your commitment to interoperability and the real progress you've made.
Be focused: the goal of the plugfest is to improve interoperability.
