Most of the communication about actual channel management takes place on IRC, and this project aims to describe how we do it, and who we are. == Channel Policy == Compared to most IRC channels on freenode and indeed on other IRC networks, #gentoo has a rather strict policy, and this policy is enforced as strictly as possible. <nowiki>#gentoo</nowiki> is the focal point of many support inquiries and can be very busy at times. Because of the many (often ~1000) users that chat (and lurk) in #gentoo, making it one of the largest channels on the Freenode network, and perhaps also because of the mild animosity that any Linux distribution causes among users of other Linux distributions, it is also the focal point of spammers, pranksters, and trolls. The policy set up to manage #gentoo is therefore very straightforward and simple: * '''The topic of the channel is Gentoo Linux support.'''<br>To be precise, this means the Gentoo Linux that you install using the [[Handbook:Main Page|Gentoo Handbook]]. ** '''Alternative operating systems''' (where the difference may be in, for example, the kernel, userland, or package manager) do '''not''' fall into this category. ** '''Gentoo derivatives''' are considered as alternative systems; users of these distributions are asked to consult their distribution's support venues, not #gentoo. ** We can '''not''' provide support for '''using Gentoo projects''' (such as OpenRC, genkernel, etc.) on these alternative systems. ** '''"Manual installation"''', i.e. working around the official package manager by manually downloading sources and unpacking, configuring, compiling, and installing (normally to {{Path|/usr/local}}) is not supported. * '''Actual chat''' (such as personal stories, comments on external events, even mild flamewars about program X versus program Y) '''is not on topic.''' ** Users participating in such conversations will usually be asked to take the discussion elsewhere. * '''Discussion of {{IRC|gentoo}} management is off topic.''' ** The appropriate place to discuss matters of {{IRC|gentoo}} policy and its enforcement is {{IRC|gentoo-ops}} (and not #gentoo: it's just too busy for that). * '''{{IRC|gentoo}} operates a clean language policy.''' ** Because of the varied nature of Gentoo users and the varied environments in which they might use {{IRC|gentoo}}, the channel has a strict language policy, meaning that anything you wouldn't dare say to your proverbial grandmother, you shouldn't say in {{IRC|gentoo}}. ** The use of expletives is strongly discouraged. * '''No bots or scripts that talk or publicly log the channel.''' ** This includes away/return messages and 'now playing' announcements. * '''No pasting >3 lines.''' ** Please use a pastebin, or the handy {{c|[[Wgetpaste|wgetpaste]]}} utility (available from the {{Package|app-text/wgetpaste }} package) to provide links to longer pastes in the channel instead. === Abuse Management === Users found in violation of the above rules or otherwise negatively impacting the channel will in most cases be warned/asked to stop first. Should they persist, consequent muting or banishment follows. Users may appeal or discuss any action taken against them in {{IRC|gentoo-ops}}, or via email at {{Mail|ops@gentoo.org}}.

Because of the many (often ~1000) users that chat (and lurk) in #gentoo, making it one of the largest channels on the Freenode network, and perhaps also because of the mild animosity that any Linux distribution causes among users of other Linux distributions, it is also the focal point of spammers, pranksters, and trolls. The policy set up to manage #gentoo is therefore very straightforward and simple: The topic of the channel is Gentoo Linux support.To be precise, this means the Gentoo Linux that you install using the Gentoo Handbook. Alternative operating systems (where the difference may be in, for example, the kernel, userland, or package manager) do not fall into this category. Gentoo derivatives are considered as alternative systems; users of these distributions are asked to consult their distribution's support venues, not #gentoo. We can not provide support for using Gentoo projects (such as OpenRC, genkernel, etc.) on these alternative systems. "Manual installation", i.e. working around the official package manager by manually downloading sources and unpacking, configuring, compiling, and installing (normally to /usr/local) is not supported. Actual chat (such as personal stories, comments on external events, even mild flamewars about program X versus program Y) is not on topic. Users participating in such conversations will usually be asked to take the discussion elsewhere. Discussion of #gentoo management is off topic. The appropriate place to discuss matters of #gentoo policy and its enforcement is #gentoo-ops (and not #gentoo: it's just too busy for that). #gentoo operates a clean language policy. Because of the varied nature of Gentoo users and the varied environments in which they might use #gentoo, the channel has a strict language policy, meaning that anything you wouldn't dare say to your proverbial grandmother, you shouldn't say in #gentoo. The use of expletives is strongly discouraged. No bots or scripts that talk or publicly log the channel. This includes away/return messages and 'now playing' announcements. No pasting &gt;3 lines. Please use a pastebin, or the handy wgetpaste utility (available from the app-text/wgetpaste package) to provide links to longer pastes in the channel instead. Abuse Management[edit] Users found in violation of the above rules or otherwise negatively impacting the channel will in most cases be warned/asked to stop first.

Because of the many (often ~1000) users that chat (and lurk) in #gentoo, making it one of the largest channels on the Freenode network, and perhaps also because of the mild animosity that any Linux distribution causes among users of other Linux distributions, it is also the focal point of spammers, pranksters, and trolls. </p><p>The policy set up to manage #gentoo is therefore very straightforward and simple: </p> <ul><li> <b>The topic of the channel is Gentoo Linux support.</b><br />To be precise, this means the Gentoo Linux that you install using the <a href="/wiki/Handbook:Main_Page" title="Handbook:Main Page">Gentoo Handbook</a>. <ul><li> <b>Alternative operating systems</b> (where the difference may be in, for example, the kernel, userland, or package manager) do <b>not</b> fall into this category.</li> <li> <b>Gentoo derivatives</b> are considered as alternative systems; users of these distributions are asked to consult their distribution's support venues, not #gentoo.</li> <li> We can <b>not</b> provide support for <b>using Gentoo projects</b> (such as OpenRC, genkernel, etc.) on these alternative systems.</li> <li> <b>"Manual installation"</b>, i.e. working around the official package manager by manually downloading sources and unpacking, configuring, compiling, and installing (normally to <span style="font-family: monospace; font-size: 95%">/usr/local</span>) is not supported.</li></ul></li> <li> <b>Actual chat</b> (such as personal stories, comments on external events, even mild flamewars about program X versus program Y) <b>is not on topic.</b> <ul><li> Users participating in such conversations will usually be asked to take the discussion elsewhere.</li></ul></li> <li> <b>Discussion of <span style="font-family: monospace; font-size: 95%;"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="irc://irc.gentoo.org/gentoo">#gentoo</a></span> management is off topic.</b> <ul><li> The appropriate place to discuss matters of <span style="font-family: monospace; font-size: 95%;"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="irc://irc.gentoo.org/gentoo">#gentoo</a></span> policy and its enforcement is <span style="font-family: monospace; font-size: 95%;"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="irc://irc.gentoo.org/gentoo-ops">#gentoo-ops</a></span> (and not #gentoo: it's just too busy for that).</li></ul></li> <li> <b><span style="font-family: monospace; font-size: 95%;"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="irc://irc.gentoo.org/gentoo">#gentoo</a></span> operates a clean language policy.</b> <ul><li> Because of the varied nature of Gentoo users and the varied environments in which they might use <span style="font-family: monospace; font-size: 95%;"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="irc://irc.gentoo.org/gentoo">#gentoo</a></span>, the channel has a strict language policy, meaning that anything you wouldn't dare say to your proverbial grandmother, you shouldn't say in <span style="font-family: monospace; font-size: 95%;"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="irc://irc.gentoo.org/gentoo">#gentoo</a></span>.</li> <li> The use of expletives is strongly discouraged.</li></ul></li> <li> <b>No bots or scripts that talk or publicly log the channel.</b> <ul><li> This includes away/return messages and 'now playing' announcements.</li></ul></li> <li> <b>No pasting &gt;3 lines.</b> <ul><li> Please use a pastebin, or the handy <span style="font-family: monospace; font-size: 95%; font-weight: bold;" class="tripleclick-separator"><a href="/wiki/Wgetpaste" title="Wgetpaste">wgetpaste</a></span> utility (available from the <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/app-text/wgetpaste">app-text/wgetpaste</a> package) to provide links to longer pastes in the channel instead.</li></ul></li></ul> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Abuse_Management">Abuse Management</span><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/index.php?title=Project:Ops&amp;action=edit&amp;section=2" title="Edit section: Abuse Management">edit</a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></h3> <p>Users found in violation of the above rules or otherwise negatively impacting the channel will in most cases be warned/asked to stop first.
