The FOLIO open source project relies on discussion, disagreements, and respectful debate. We aim to empower individuals to first resolve conflicts themselves, asking for help when needed. (For example, from SIG conveners, technical leads, and members of the Product, Technical, and Community councils.) Conflict resulting in unacceptable behavior is not permitted and is a violation of the FOLIO project code of conduct.
