 1 | # Contributing to FOSS Acronyms
 2 | 
 3 | :+1::tada: First off, thanks for taking the time to contribute! :tada::+1:
 4 | 
 5 | The following is a set of guidelines for contributing to this project, which are hosted in the [D-EDGE Organization](https://github.com/d-edge) on GitHub. These are mostly guidelines, not rules. Use your best judgment, and feel free to propose changes to this document in a pull request.
 6 | 
 7 | ## Code of Conduct
 8 | 
 9 | This project and everyone participating in it is governed by the [D-EDGE Code of Conduct](CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md). By participating, you are expected to uphold this code. Please report unacceptable behavior to [softwarecraft@d-edge.com](mailto:softwarecraft@d-edge.com).
10 | 
11 | ## Working on your first Pull Request?
12 | 
13 | You can learn how from this *free* series [How to Contribute to an Open Source Project on GitHub](https://kcd.im/pull-request)
14 | 
15 | ## Git Commit Messages
16 | 
17 | This project follows a subset of [Conventional commits specification](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0/).
18 | No type, no scope. Only description and so upper case the first letter.
19 | 
20 | ## What to contribute?
21 | 
22 | ### Fill gap
23 | 
24 | FOSS-Acronyms has a lot of blank space waiting to be filled. Find an empty string in one of the [JSON](https://github.com/d-edge/foss-acronyms/tree/main/data) and fix it!
25 | 
26 | ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/3449303/191771306-a820a087-7e8e-462a-bd69-358b58a0d377.png)
27 | 
28 | Pro-tips: Open [acronyms.json](https://github.com/d-edge/foss-acronyms/blob/main/data/acronyms.json) and search for `""` 😄
29 | 
30 | ### Add new acronym
31 | 
32 | You can contribute by adding new entries to the list of acronyms.
33 | 
34 | - Find a good missing acronym
35 |   - Grab one in the [issues](https://github.com/d-edge/foss-acronyms/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3A%22good+first+issue%22). Issues are filled with good missing acronyms.
36 |   - Submit your own. A missing acronym is an acronym not in the list nor in the issues. A good acronym is any acronym used by the FOSS community.
37 | - Fork the project. [You can use this shortcut](https://github.com/d-edge/foss-acronyms/fork).
38 | - Edit the JSON. A good acronym need
39 |   - an `Abbreviation` like "FOSS"
40 |   - a `Definition` like "Free & Open Source Software"
41 |   - a `Usage` like "That is both free software and open-source software where anyone is freely licensed to use, copy, study, and change the software in any way, and the source code is openly shared so that people are encouraged to voluntarily improve the design of the software"
42 |   - an `Example` wich is a collection of html link like `<a href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_and_open-source_software#Usage\">FOSS/FLOSS</a>`. Don't forget to escape all the quote (e.g. `\"`).
43 | - Submit a PR
44 | 
45 | Finally here is an example of a [merged PR](https://github.com/d-edge/foss-acronyms/pull/63/files). Have fun hacking this project 😸
46 | 
47 | Thank you for contributing!

  1 | # Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct
  2 | 
  3 | ## Our Pledge
  4 | 
  5 | We as members, contributors, and leaders pledge to make participation in our
  6 | community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body
  7 | size, visible or invisible disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender
  8 | identity and expression, level of experience, education, socio-economic status,
  9 | nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity
 10 | and orientation.
 11 | 
 12 | We pledge to act and interact in ways that contribute to an open, welcoming,
 13 | diverse, inclusive, and healthy community.
 14 | 
 15 | ## Our Standards
 16 | 
 17 | Examples of behavior that contributes to a positive environment for our
 18 | community include:
 19 | 
 20 | * Demonstrating empathy and kindness toward other people
 21 | * Being respectful of differing opinions, viewpoints, and experiences
 22 | * Giving and gracefully accepting constructive feedback
 23 | * Accepting responsibility and apologizing to those affected by our mistakes,
 24 |   and learning from the experience
 25 | * Focusing on what is best not just for us as individuals, but for the
 26 |   overall community
 27 | 
 28 | Examples of unacceptable behavior include:
 29 | 
 30 | * The use of sexualized language or imagery, and sexual attention or
 31 |   advances of any kind
 32 | * Trolling, insulting or derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
 33 | * Public or private harassment
 34 | * Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or email
 35 |   address, without their explicit permission
 36 | * Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a
 37 |   professional setting
 38 | 
 39 | ## Enforcement Responsibilities
 40 | 
 41 | Community leaders are responsible for clarifying and enforcing our standards of
 42 | acceptable behavior and will take appropriate and fair corrective action in
 43 | response to any behavior that they deem inappropriate, threatening, offensive,
 44 | or harmful.
 45 | 
 46 | Community leaders have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or reject
 47 | comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions that are
 48 | not aligned to this Code of Conduct, and will communicate reasons for moderation
 49 | decisions when appropriate.
 50 | 
 51 | ## Scope
 52 | 
 53 | This Code of Conduct applies within all community spaces, and also applies when
 54 | an individual is officially representing the community in public spaces.
 55 | Examples of representing our community include using an official e-mail address,
 56 | posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed
 57 | representative at an online or offline event.
 58 | 
 59 | ## Enforcement
 60 | 
 61 | Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
 62 | reported to the community leaders responsible for enforcement at
 63 | softwarecraft@d-edge.com.
 64 | All complaints will be reviewed and investigated promptly and fairly.
 65 | 
 66 | All community leaders are obligated to respect the privacy and security of the
 67 | reporter of any incident.
 68 | 
 69 | ## Enforcement Guidelines
 70 | 
 71 | Community leaders will follow these Community Impact Guidelines in determining
 72 | the consequences for any action they deem in violation of this Code of Conduct:
 73 | 
 74 | ### 1. Correction
 75 | 
 76 | **Community Impact**: Use of inappropriate language or other behavior deemed
 77 | unprofessional or unwelcome in the community.
 78 | 
 79 | **Consequence**: A private, written warning from community leaders, providing
 80 | clarity around the nature of the violation and an explanation of why the
 81 | behavior was inappropriate. A public apology may be requested.
 82 | 
 83 | ### 2. Warning
 84 | 
 85 | **Community Impact**: A violation through a single incident or series
 86 | of actions.
 87 | 
 88 | **Consequence**: A warning with consequences for continued behavior. No
 89 | interaction with the people involved, including unsolicited interaction with
 90 | those enforcing the Code of Conduct, for a specified period of time. This
 91 | includes avoiding interactions in community spaces as well as external channels
 92 | like social media. Violating these terms may lead to a temporary or
 93 | permanent ban.
 94 | 
 95 | ### 3. Temporary Ban
 96 | 
 97 | **Community Impact**: A serious violation of community standards, including
 98 | sustained inappropriate behavior.
 99 |

 12 |     HEREUNDER.
 13 | 
 14 | Statement of Purpose
 15 | 
 16 | The laws of most jurisdictions throughout the world automatically confer
 17 | exclusive Copyright and Related Rights (defined below) upon the creator
 18 | and subsequent owner(s) (each and all, an "owner") of an original work of
 19 | authorship and/or a database (each, a "Work").
 20 | 
 21 | Certain owners wish to permanently relinquish those rights to a Work for
 22 | the purpose of contributing to a commons of creative, cultural and
 23 | scientific works ("Commons") that the public can reliably and without fear
 24 | of later claims of infringement build upon, modify, incorporate in other
 25 | works, reuse and redistribute as freely as possible in any form whatsoever
 26 | and for any purposes, including without limitation commercial purposes.
 27 | These owners may contribute to the Commons to promote the ideal of a free
 28 | culture and the further production of creative, cultural and scientific
 29 | works, or to gain reputation or greater distribution for their Work in
 30 | part through the use and efforts of others.
 31 | 
 32 | For these and/or other purposes and motivations, and without any
 33 | expectation of additional consideration or compensation, the person
 34 | associating CC0 with a Work (the "Affirmer"), to the extent that he or she
 35 | is an owner of Copyright and Related Rights in the Work, voluntarily
 36 | elects to apply CC0 to the Work and publicly distribute the Work under its
 37 | terms, with knowledge of his or her Copyright and Related Rights in the
 38 | Work and the meaning and intended legal effect of CC0 on those rights.
 39 | 
 40 | 1. Copyright and Related Rights. A Work made available under CC0 may be
 41 | protected by copyright and related or neighboring rights ("Copyright and
 42 | Related Rights"). Copyright and Related Rights include, but are not
 43 | limited to, the following:
 44 | 
 45 |   i. the right to reproduce, adapt, distribute, perform, display,
 46 |      communicate, and translate a Work;
 47 |  ii. moral rights retained by the original author(s) and/or performer(s);
 48 | iii. publicity and privacy rights pertaining to a person's image or
 49 |      likeness depicted in a Work;
 50 |  iv. rights protecting against unfair competition in regards to a Work,
 51 |      subject to the limitations in paragraph 4(a), below;
 52 |   v. rights protecting the extraction, dissemination, use and reuse of data
 53 |      in a Work;
 54 |  vi. database rights (such as those arising under Directive 96/9/EC of the
 55 |      European Parliament and of the Council of 11 March 1996 on the legal
 56 |      protection of databases, and under any national implementation
 57 |      thereof, including any amended or successor version of such
 58 |      directive); and
 59 | vii. other similar, equivalent or corresponding rights throughout the
 60 |      world based on applicable law or treaty, and any national
 61 |      implementations thereof.
 62 | 
 63 | 2. Waiver. To the greatest extent permitted by, but not in contravention
 64 | of, applicable law, Affirmer hereby overtly, fully, permanently,
 65 | irrevocably and unconditionally waives, abandons, and surrenders all of
 66 | Affirmer's Copyright and Related Rights and associated claims and causes
 67 | of action, whether now known or unknown (including existing as well as
 68 | future claims and causes of action), in the Work (i) in all territories
 69 | worldwide, (ii) for the maximum duration provided by applicable law or
 70 | treaty (including future time extensions), (iii) in any current or future
 71 | medium and for any number of copies, and (iv) for any purpose whatsoever,
 72 | including without limitation commercial, advertising or promotional
 73 | purposes (the "Waiver"). Affirmer makes the Waiver for the benefit of each
 74 | member of the public at large and to the detriment of Affirmer's heirs and
 75 | successors, fully intending that such Waiver shall not be subject to
 76 | revocation, rescission, cancellation, termination, or any other legal or
 77 | equitable action to disrupt the quiet enjoyment of the Work by the public
 78 | as contemplated by Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose.
 79 | 
 80 | 3. Public License Fallback. Should any part of the Waiver for any reason
 81 | be judged legally invalid or ineffective under applicable law, then the
 82 | Waiver shall be preserved to the maximum extent permitted taking into
 83 | account Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose. In addition, to the
 84 | extent the Waiver is so judged Affirmer hereby grants to each affected
 85 | person a royalty-free, non transferable, non sublicensable, non exclusive,
 86 | irrevocable and unconditional license to exercise Affirmer's Copyright and
 87 | Related Rights in the Work (i) in all territories worldwide, (ii) for the
 88 | maximum duration provided by applicable law or treaty (including future
 89 | time extensions), (iii) in any current or future medium and for any number
 90 | of copies, and (iv) for any purpose whatsoever, including without
 91 | limitation commercial, advertising or promotional purposes (the
 92 | "License"). The License shall be deemed effective as of the date CC0 was
 93 | applied by Affirmer to the Work. Should any part of the License for any
 94 | reason be judged legally invalid or ineffective under applicable law, such
 95 | partial invalidity or ineffectiveness shall not invalidate the remainder
 96 | of the License, and in such case Affirmer hereby affirms that he or she
 97 | will not (i) exercise any of his or her remaining Copyright and Related
 98 | Rights in the Work or (ii) assert any associated claims and causes of
 99 | action with respect to the Work, in either case contrary to Affirmer's
100 | express Statement of Purpose.
101 | 
102 | 4. Limitations and Disclaimers.
103 | 
104 |  a. No trademark or patent rights held by Affirmer are waived, abandoned,
105 |     surrendered, licensed or otherwise affected by this document.
106 |  b. Affirmer offers the Work as-is and makes no representations or
107 |     warranties of any kind concerning the Work, express, implied,
108 |     statutory or otherwise, including without limitation warranties of
109 |     title, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non
110 |     infringement, or the absence of latent or other defects, accuracy, or
111 |     the present or absence of errors, whether or not discoverable, all to
112 |     the greatest extent permissible under applicable law.
113 |  c. Affirmer disclaims responsibility for clearing rights of other persons
114 |     that may apply to the Work or any use thereof, including without
115 |     limitation any person's Copyright and Related Rights in the Work.
116 |     Further, Affirmer disclaims responsibility for obtaining any necessary
117 |     consents, permissions or other rights required for any use of the
118 |     Work.
119 |  d. Affirmer understands and acknowledges that Creative Commons is not a
120 |     party to this document and has no duty or obligation with respect to
121 |     this CC0 or use of the Work.

  4 | 
  5 | List of abbreviations used within the FOSS community, and their definitions and usages. This list inludes more common english acronyms popular on internet.
  6 | 
  7 | Maintained by folks at [D-EDGE](https://www.d-edge.com/).

  9 | ## Contributing
 10 | 
 11 | If you have a GitHub account, you can submit a pull request to any json in the data folder.
 12 | 
 13 | ## Tip
 14 | 
 15 | Write out the full name when you want to introduce a term (with the acronym in brackets). Use only the acronym after this.
 16 | Example:
 17 | 
 18 | > Companies don’t usually talk about FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out). Instead, they use phrases such as “shiny object syndrome” and “market expectations.” Google is a great example of how FOMO can creep in. 
 19 | 
 20 | [FOMO Is Disastrous for Company Strategies](https://rubenugarte.com/fomo-is-disastrous-for-company-strategies/) by [Ruben Ugarte](https://rubenugarte.com/)
 21 | 
 22 | If you are only going to use the acronym once, maybe don't use it at all and rely on the whole expression instead.
