[python-committers] Proposal for procedures regarding CoC actions

[Mariatta Wijaya]

Thanks everyone for the input.


It is still unclear to me how one can report when someone is being rude on
GitHub.
In the mailing lists we can email the administrators. But what about on
GitHub?
Do I write to python-committers?
What if it was a core developer who was being rude, where can a non
core-dev contributor report such behavior?
