Of course it is satirical but I think people forget that the CoC's that been gaining traction lately are themselves a response to a real problem.<p>Yes, some CoC's may be fodder for satire and criticism because they cross the line when it comes to being excessively dogmatic. However, these things exist because online communities have been beset by hordes of assholes for a very long time. Many people feel excluded or are dismissed just because some jerk manages to wield a measure of virtual power.<p>It would be a mistake to move in the reverse direction now and abandon CoC's. If they're not working, perhaps change them or try something else, but the problem needs to be addressed.
It is not obvious that this is satire. Mr Hipp (main contributor) links his homepage at <a href="http://www.hwaci.com/drh/" rel="nofollow">http://www.hwaci.com/drh/</a>. From that page, he links his wife (Mrs. Wyrick): <a href="http://www.hwaci.com/ggw/index.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.hwaci.com/ggw/index.html</a>. She has among her interests: <a href="http://www.hwaci.com/ggw/allerton.pdf" rel="nofollow">http://www.hwaci.com/ggw/allerton.pdf</a> "Church Music Resources".<p>As mentioned elsewhere in this thread: SQLite is "Open-Source, not Open-Contribution". In that context, an openly religious CoC does not seem out of the question.
Note that SQLite is, in it's own words, "Open-Source, not Open-Contribution". SQLite does not accept patches from the public.<p>See <a href="https://www.sqlite.org/copyright.html" rel="nofollow">https://www.sqlite.org/copyright.html</a><p>Looking at the commit history for the project, all of the commits for 2018 have been from just three people (with 98% of those coming from just two of those).
While we often confuse religion with the practices of the idiots fawning over politicians here in the US, there is beauty to be found in the wisdom of the ancients on occasion.
Dang why is this flagged?<p>Also as a muslim, it's very amusing to me that there are people who are fighting for me without my asking them and yet them telling me and other muslim it's bad.<p>It's hilarious what the politically programmed noise-makers think of themselves.
WTF? Please tell this isn't for real.<p>```
This rule is strict, and none are able to comply perfectly. Grace is readily granted for minor transgressions. All are encouraged to follow this rule closely, as in so doing they may expect to live happier, healthier, and more productive lives. The entire rule is good and wholesome, and yet we make no enforcement of the more introspective aspects.<p>Everyone is free to use the SQLite source code, object code, and/or documentation regardless of their opinion of and adherence to this rule. SQLite has been and continues to be completely free to everyone, without precondition.```<p>Do I have to go for confession before every pull request now?
