+Code of Conduct
+===============
+
+All participants in the fsspec community are expected to adhere to a Code of Conduct.
+
+As contributors and maintainers of this project, and in the interest of
+fostering an open and welcoming community, we pledge to respect all people who
+contribute through reporting issues, posting feature requests, updating
+documentation, submitting pull requests or patches, and other activities.
+
+We are committed to making participation in this project a harassment-free
+experience for everyone, treating everyone as unique humans deserving of
+respect.
+
+Examples of unacceptable behaviour by participants include:
+
+- The use of sexualized language or imagery
+- Personal attacks
+- Trolling or insulting/derogatory comments
+- Public or private harassment
+- Publishing other's private information, such as physical or electronic
+  addresses, without explicit permission
+- Other unethical or unprofessional conduct
+
+Project maintainers have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or
+reject comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions
+that are not aligned to this Code of Conduct, or to ban temporarily or
+permanently any contributor for other behaviours that they deem inappropriate,
+threatening, offensive, or harmful.
+
+By adopting this Code of Conduct, project maintainers commit themselves
+to fairly and consistently applying these principles to every aspect of
+managing this project. Project maintainers who do not follow or enforce
+the Code of Conduct may be permanently removed from the project team.
+
+This code of conduct applies both within project spaces and in public
+spaces when an individual is representing the project or its community.
+
+If you feel the code of conduct has been violated, please report the
+incident to the fsspec core team.
+
+Reporting
+---------
+
+If you believe someone is violating theCode of Conduct we ask that you report it
+to the  Project by emailing [email protected]. All reports will be kept
+confidential. In some cases we may determine that a public statement will need
+to be made. If that's the case, the identities of all victims and reporters
+will remain confidential unless those individuals instruct us otherwise.
+If you believe anyone is in physical danger, please notify appropriate law
+enforcement first.
+
+In your report please include:
+
+- Your contact info
+- Names (real, nicknames, or pseudonyms) of any individuals involved.
+  If there were other witnesses besides you, please try to include them as well.
+- When and where the incident occurred. Please be as specific as possible.
+- Your account of what occurred. If there is a publicly available record
+  please include a link.
+- Any extra context you believe existed for the incident.
+- If you believe this incident is ongoing.
+- If you believe any member of the core team has a conflict of interest
+  in adjudicating the incident.
+- What, if any, corrective response you believe would be appropriate.
+- Any other information you believe we should have.
+
+Core team members are obligated to maintain confidentiality with regard
+to the reporter and details of an incident.
+
+What happens next?
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+You will receive an email acknowledging receipt of your complaint.
+The core team will immediately meet to review the incident and determine:
+
+- What happened.
+- Whether this event constitutes a code of conduct violation.
+- Who the bad actor was.
+- Whether this is an ongoing situation, or if there is a threat to anyone's
+  physical safety.
+- If this is determined to be an ongoing incident or a threat to physical safety,
+  the working groups' immediate priority will be to protect everyone involved.
+
+If a member of the core team is one of the named parties, they will not be
+included in any discussions, and will not be provided with any confidential
+details from the reporter.
+
+If anyone on the core team believes they have a conflict of interest in
+adjudicating on a reported issue, they will inform the other core team
+members, and exempt themselves from any discussion about the issue.
+Following this declaration, they will not be provided with any confidential
+details from the reporter.
+
+Once the working group has a complete account of the events they will make a
+decision as to how to response. Responses may include:
+
+- Nothing (if we determine no violation occurred).
+- A private reprimand from the working group to the individual(s) involved.
+- A public reprimand.
+- An imposed vacation
+- A permanent or temporary ban from some or all spaces (GitHub repositories, etc.)
+- A request for a public or private apology.
+
+We'll respond within one week to the person who filed the report with either a
+resolution or an explanation of why the situation is not yet resolved.
+
+Once we've determined our final action, we'll contact the original reporter
+to let them know what action (if any) we'll be taking. We'll take into account
+feedback from the reporter on the appropriateness of our response, but we
+don't guarantee we'll act on it.
