-This Code of Conduct was originally adapted from the Contributor Covenant, version 1.4, available at [Contributor-Covenant](http://contributor-covenant.org/version/1/4). We then aligned it with the UCAR Participant Code of Conduct, which also borrows from the American Geophysical Union (AGU) Code of Conduct. The UCAR Participant Code of Conduct applies to both UCAR employees as well as participants in activities run by UCAR. We modified the "scope" section with the django project description, and we added "Publication Ethics" from the NGEET/FATES project. The original version of this for all software projects that have strong management from UCAR or UCAR staff is available on the UCAR website at [*Enter DOI link name*] (the date that it was adopted by this project was [*Enter date adopted*]). When responding to complaints UCAR HR and ODEI will do so based on the latest published version. Therefore, any project-specific changes should follow the Process for Changes section above.
