Sugar Network/Policy: Difference between revisions

Line 4:

This Policy is based on the [[Activity Library]] [[Activity_Library/Editors/Policy|one]], assuming that [[Sugar Network]] will provide, in addition, the same content as Sugar [[Activity Library]] provides.

=== Requirements ===

== Requirements ==

Content that is not permitted:

:* Inappropriate (violent, sexual, subversive) content,

:* Inappropriate (violent, sexual, subversive, commercial, or, discriminatory) content,

:*: This topic might be too ambiguous (and too hard to write in a few sentences). Since we don't have such a thorough policy, e.g., see this [[Sugar Labs:Policy|policy]] for the Sugar Labs wiki (although, for the Activity Library it is mostly obvious what kind of content should be hosted there), and since [[Sugar Network]] content needs to be monitored by editors, it would be better to avoid needless bureaucratic procedures and rely on people's saneness, and deal with objections on a case-by-case basis.

:* Inappropriate license, all licenses should conform Sugar Labs' [[Licensing]] policy.

:* Uploaded software should not contain [[wikipedia:Binary_file|binaries]], instead, it should contain [[wikipedia:Source_code|sources]] and rules how to transform sources into binaries.

The breach of the terms of use may mean the suspension of access to the network and / or the elimination of published content.

Rules for assignment top names, meaningful for human, to [[Sugar Network]] objects:

Line 20:

:* Names inherited from the [[Activity Library]] have a priority.

=== Special cases ===

== Privacy ==

The system is designed to collect [[Platform_Team/Usage_Statistics|personal usage statistics]]. This kind of information might be critically useful in special cases like educational researches. There are the following assumes regarding privacy:

* [[Sweets Distribution]], the official Sugar Network repository, does not enable personal statistics by default.

* In order to start sharing personal statistics, user side configuration should explicitly enable it.

* If you are using Sugar Network from downstream sources, please, consult downstream provider's private policy.

== Special cases ==

These cases require special treatment involving all concerned parties:

Line 36:

The final decision will be made by the [[Sugar Network]] administration team.

=== Audit ===

== Audit ==

Some checks, such as checking content license & conforming to this Policy, will be made automatically while uploading content to [[Sugar Network]]. In other cases, e.g., inappropriate content, we rely on [[Activity Library/Editors|Activity Library Editors]] and community feedback.
