The work of the IETF relies on cooperation among a diverse range of people with different ideas and communication styles. The IETF strives, through these guidelines for conduct, to create and maintain an environment in which every person is treated with dignity, decency, and respect. People who participate in the IETF are expected to behave in a professional manner as we work together to develop interoperable technologies for the Internet. We aim to abide by these guidelines as we build consensus in person and through email discussions. If conflicts arise, they are resolved according to the procedures outlined in RFC 2026 [RFC2026].
IETF的工作依赖于具有不同想法和沟通方式的不同人群之间的合作。IETF致力于通过这些行为准则，创造和维护一个人人都能得到尊严、体面和尊重的环境。当我们共同开发可互操作的互联网技术时，IETF参与者应以专业的方式行事。我们的目标是在亲自和通过电子邮件讨论达成共识时遵守这些准则。如果出现冲突，则根据RFC 2026[RFC2026]中概述的程序解决。
This document obsoletes RFC 3184 [RFC3184], as it is an updated version of the guidelines for conduct.
本文件废除了RFC 3184[RFC3184]，因为它是行为准则的更新版本。
1. IETF participants extend respect and courtesy to their colleagues at all times.
1. IETF参与者始终向其同事表示尊重和礼貌。
IETF participants come from diverse origins and backgrounds; there can be different expectations or assumptions. Regardless of these individual differences, participants treat their colleagues with respect as persons especially when it is difficult to agree with them: treat other participants as you would like to be treated.
IETF参与者来自不同的来源和背景；可能存在不同的期望或假设。不管这些个体差异如何，参与者都会尊重同事，尤其是在很难与他们达成一致意见的情况下：按照自己希望的方式对待其他参与者。
English is the de facto language of the IETF. However, it is not the native language of many IETF participants. All participants, particularly those with English as a first language, attempt to accommodate the needs of other participants by communicating clearly, including speaking slowly and limiting the use of slang. When faced with English that is difficult to understand, IETF participants make a sincere effort to understand each other and engage in conversation to clarify what was meant.
英语是IETF的实际语言。然而，它不是许多IETF参与者的母语。所有参与者，尤其是以英语为第一语言的参与者，都试图通过清晰的交流来满足其他参与者的需求，包括说得慢和限制俚语的使用。当面对难以理解的英语时，IETF参与者会真诚地努力相互理解，并参与对话以澄清其含义。
2. IETF participants have impersonal discussions.
2. IETF参与者进行了非个人的讨论。
We dispute ideas by using reasoned argument rather than through intimidation or personal attack. Try to provide data and facts for your standpoints so the rest of the participants who are sitting on the sidelines watching the discussion can form an opinion. The discussion is easier when the response to a simple question is a polite answer [SQPA].
我们通过合理的论证而不是恐吓或人身攻击来反驳观点。试着为你的观点提供数据和事实，以便坐在一旁观看讨论的其他参与者能够形成意见。当对简单问题的回答是礼貌的回答[SQPA]时，讨论会更容易。
3. IETF participants devise solutions for the global Internet that meet the needs of diverse technical and operational environments.
3. IETF参与者为全球互联网设计解决方案，以满足不同技术和操作环境的需求。
The mission of the IETF is to produce high-quality, relevant technical and engineering documents that influence the way people design, use, and manage the Internet in such a way as to make the Internet work better. The IETF puts its emphasis on technical competence, rough consensus, and individual participation, and it needs to be open to competent input from any source. We understand that "scaling is the ultimate problem" and that many ideas that are quite workable on a small scale fail this crucial test.
IETF的任务是生成高质量、相关的技术和工程文档，这些文档影响人们设计、使用和管理互联网的方式，从而使互联网更好地工作。IETF强调技术能力、大致共识和个人参与，并且需要对来自任何来源的胜任输入开放。我们理解“扩展是最终的问题”，许多在小规模上非常可行的想法没有通过这一关键测试。
IETF participants use their best engineering judgment to find the best solution for the whole Internet, not just the best solution for any particular network, technology, vendor, or user. While we all have ideas that may stand improvement from time to time, no one shall ever knowingly contribute advice or text that would make a standard technically inferior.
IETF参与者利用他们的最佳工程判断，为整个互联网找到最佳解决方案，而不仅仅是针对任何特定网络、技术、供应商或用户的最佳解决方案。虽然我们都有可能不时改进的想法，但任何人都不应故意提供会使标准在技术上处于劣势的建议或文本。
4. Individuals are prepared to contribute to the ongoing work of the group.
4. 个人准备为小组正在进行的工作做出贡献。
We follow the intellectual property guidelines outlined in BCP 79 [RFC3979]. IETF participants read the relevant Internet-Drafts, RFCs, and email archives in order to familiarize themselves with the technology under discussion. Working Group sessions run on a very limited time schedule, and sometimes participants have to limit their questions. The work of the group will continue on the mailing list, and questions can be asked and answered on the mailing list. It can be a challenge to participate in a Working Group without knowing the history of longstanding Working Group debates. Information about a Working Group including its charter and milestones is available on the IETF datatracker site [TRACK] or from the Working Group Chair.
我们遵循BCP 79[RFC3979]中概述的知识产权指南。IETF参与者阅读相关的互联网草案、RFC和电子邮件档案，以便熟悉讨论中的技术。工作组会议的时间安排非常有限，有时与会者不得不限制他们的提问。工作组的工作将继续在邮件列表上进行，可以在邮件列表上提问和回答问题。在不了解长期工作组辩论历史的情况下参加工作组可能是一项挑战。有关工作组的信息，包括其章程和里程碑，可在IETF数据跟踪器网站[TRACK]或工作组主席处获得。
The IETF guidelines for conduct do not directly affect the security of the Internet. However, it is to be noted that there is an expectation that no one shall ever knowingly contribute advice or text that may adversely affect the security of the Internet without describing all known or foreseen risks and threats to potential implementers and users that they are aware of.
IETF行为准则不会直接影响互联网的安全。然而，需要注意的是，人们期望任何人都不会在不描述他们所知道的对潜在实施者和用户的所有已知或预见的风险和威胁的情况下，故意提供可能对互联网安全产生不利影响的建议或文本。
Most of the text in this document is based on RFC 3184, which was written by Susan Harris. The editor would like to acknowledge that this document would not exist without her contribution. Mike O'Dell wrote the first draft of the Guidelines for Conduct, and many of his thoughts, statements, and observations are included in this version. Many useful editorial comments were supplied by Dave Crocker. Members of the POISSON Working Group provided many significant additions to the text.
本文档中的大部分文本基于Susan Harris编写的RFC 3184。编辑想承认，如果没有她的贡献，这份文件将不存在。迈克·奥戴尔（Mike O'Dell）撰写了《行为准则》的初稿，他的许多想法、陈述和观察都包含在这个版本中。戴夫·克罗克提供了许多有用的编辑评论。泊松工作组成员对案文作了许多重要补充。
The editor would like to thank Jari Arkko, Brian Carpenter, Dave Cridland, Dave Crocker, Spencer Dawkins, Alan DeKok, Lars Eggert, David Farmer, Adrian Farrel, Stephen Farrell, Russ Housley, Eliot Lear, Barry Leiba, Ines Robles, Eduardo A. Suarez, Brian Trammell, and Sean Turner for contributing towards the improvement of the document.
