+# Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct
+
+## Our Pledge
+
+In the interest of fostering an open and welcoming environment, we as
+contributors and maintainers pledge to making participation in our project and
+our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body
+size, disability, ethnicity, gender identity and expression, level of experience,
+nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and
+orientation.
+
+## Our Standards
+
+Examples of behavior that contributes to creating a positive environment
+include:
+
+* Using welcoming and inclusive language
+* Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences
+* Gracefully accepting constructive criticism
+* Focusing on what is best for the community
+* Showing empathy towards other community members
+
+Examples of unacceptable behavior by participants include:
+
+* The use of sexualized language or imagery and unwelcome sexual attention or
+advances
+* Trolling, insulting/derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
+* Public or private harassment
+* Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or electronic
+  address, without explicit permission
+* Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a
+  professional setting
+
+## Our Responsibilities
+
+Project maintainers are responsible for clarifying the standards of acceptable
+behavior and are expected to take appropriate and fair corrective action in
+response to any instances of unacceptable behavior.
+
+Project maintainers have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or
+reject comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions
+that are not aligned to this Code of Conduct, or to ban temporarily or
+permanently any contributor for other behaviors that they deem inappropriate,
+threatening, offensive, or harmful.
+
+## Scope
+
+This Code of Conduct applies both within project spaces and in public spaces
+when an individual is representing the project or its community. Examples of
+representing a project or community include using an official project e-mail
+address, posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed
+representative at an online or offline event. Representation of a project may be
+further defined and clarified by project maintainers.
+
+## Enforcement
+
+Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
+reported by contacting the project team at [INSERT EMAIL ADDRESS]. All
+complaints will be reviewed and investigated and will result in a response that
+is deemed necessary and appropriate to the circumstances. The project team is
+obligated to maintain confidentiality with regard to the reporter of an incident.
+Further details of specific enforcement policies may be posted separately.
+
+Project maintainers who do not follow or enforce the Code of Conduct in good
+faith may face temporary or permanent repercussions as determined by other
+members of the project's leadership.

+## Origins
-  environment for all, regardless of gender, sexual orientation,
+
-  disability, ethnicity, religion, or similar personal characteristic.
+This document is based on the original [io.js contribution guidelines](https://github.com/nodejs/io.js/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md)
-* Please avoid using overtly sexual nicknames or other nicknames that
-  might detract from a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for
-  all.
-* Please be kind and courteous. There's no need to be mean or rude.
-* Respect that people have differences of opinion and that every
-  design or implementation choice carries a trade-off and numerous
-  costs. There is seldom a right answer.
-* Please keep unstructured critique to a minimum. If you have solid
-  ideas you want to experiment with, make a fork and see how it works.
-* We will exclude you from interaction if you insult, demean or harass
-  anyone.  That is not welcome behaviour. We interpret the term
-  "harassment" as including the definition in the [Citizen Code of
-  Conduct](http://citizencodeofconduct.org/); if you have any lack of
-  clarity about what might be included in that concept, please read
-  their definition. In particular, we don't tolerate behavior that
-  excludes people in socially marginalized groups.
-* Private harassment is also unacceptable. No matter who you are, if
-  you feel you have been or are being harassed or made uncomfortable
-  by a community member, please contact one of the channel ops or any
-  of the TC members immediately with a capture (log, photo, email) of
-  the harassment if possible.  Whether you're a regular contributor or
-  a newcomer, we care about making this community a safe place for you
-  and we've got your back.
-* Likewise any spamming, trolling, flaming, baiting or other
-  attention-stealing behaviour is not welcome.
-* Avoid the use of personal pronouns in code comments or
-  documentation. There is no need to address persons when explaining
-  code (e.g. "When the developer")
