To ensure that we were meeting the real-world needs of communities, we surveyed, interviewed, and shared working drafts with over 2 dozen open industry experts to learn about the challenges of code of conduct enforcement and where current tools were falling short. Thanks to those who participated!

Contributor Covenant 3.0 is designed to be more adaptable to different kinds of communities, both online and offline. It is written with clearer, less US-centric language, intended to be easier to understand and translate.
