Linux Kernel Code of Conduct Committee: March 31, 2023

In the period of October 1, 2022 through March 31, 2023, the Code of
Conduct Committee received the following reports:

Unacceptable behavior or comments in email: 6

The result of the investigation:
 - Education and coaching clarifying the Code of Conduct conduct
   related to normal review and patch acceptance process: 1
 - Clarification on the Code of Conduct conduct related to
   maintainer rights and responsibility to reject code: 5

The reports were about the decisions made in rejecting code and these
actions are not viewed as violations of the Code of Conduct.

Please see the excerpt from the Responsibilities section in the
code-of-conduct-interpretation.rst document:

"setting expertise expectations, making decisions and rejecting unsuitable
contributions are not viewed as a violation of the Code of Conduct."

We would like to thank the Linux kernel community members who have
supported the adoption of the Code of Conduct and who continue to
uphold the professional standards of our community. If you have
questions about this report, please write to <conduct@xxxxxxxxxx>.
