Rationale:

 - Right now:

   - These pages' Markdown will be rendered when browsing our
     repository in the GitLab web interface

   - The .md extension is more common nowadays: GitHub, GitLab, and various
     other major players have settled on it. Let's get used to it.

 - If we decide to migrate our blueprints to GitLab (#18079),
   this will be a necessary first step.

+[[!meta title="Tails HackFest 2014 -- Anti-harassment policy"]]
+
+Like the technical community as a whole, the Tails team and community
+is made up of a mixture of people from all over the world, working on
+every aspect of the mission -- including mentorship, teaching, and
+connecting people.
+
+Diversity is one of our huge strengths, but it can also lead to
+communication issues and unhappiness. To that end, we have a few
+ground rules that we ask people to adhere to when they’re
+participating within this community and project. These rules apply
+equally to founders, mentors and those seeking help and guidance.
+
+This isn’t an exhaustive list of things that you can’t do. Rather,
+take it in the spirit in which it’s intended -- a guide to make it
+easier to enrich all of us and the technical communities in which
+we participate.
+
+This policy is meant for the Tails HackFest, 2014, in Paris. It might later
+become a Code of Conduct applicable to all spaces managed by the
+Tails project.
+
+If you believe someone is violating this policy, we ask that you
+report it by contacting the emergency response team
+(+33 (0)6 86 30 15 08, or ask frontdesk, or email
+<tails-hackfest-2014@boum.org>).
+
+* **Be welcoming, friendly, and patient.**
+* **Be considerate.** Your work will be used by other people, and you
+  in turn will depend on the work of others. Any decision you take
+  will affect users and other contributors, and you should take those
+  consequences into account when making decisions. Remember that we’re
+  a world-wide community, so you might not be communicating in someone
+  else’s primary language.
+* **Be respectful.** Not all of us will agree all the time, but
+  disagreement is no excuse for poor behavior and poor manners.
+  We might all experience some frustration now and then, but we cannot
+  allow that frustration to turn into a personal attack. It’s
+  important to remember that a community where people feel
+  uncomfortable or threatened is not a productive one. Members of the
+  Tails community should be respectful when dealing with other members
+  as well as with people outside the Tails community.
+* **Be careful in the words that you choose.** Be kind to others.
+  Do not insult or put down other participants. Harassment and other
+  exclusionary behavior aren’t acceptable. This includes, but is not
+  limited to:
+  - Violent threats or language directed against another person.
+  - Sexist, racist, or otherwise discriminatory jokes and language.
+  - Exhibiting sexually explicit or violent speak or material.
+  - Publishing (or threatening to publish) other people’s personally
+    identifying information ("doxing").
+  - Recording, photographing or filming other persons without their
+    consent. Seek consent before recording. Also ask people who may be
+    seen or heard in the background.
+  - Personal insults, especially those using racist or sexist terms.
+  - Unwelcome sexual attention.
+  - Advocating for, or encouraging, any of the above behavior.
+  - Repeated harassment of others. In general, if someone asks you to
+    stop, then stop.
+* **When we disagree, try to understand why.** Disagreements, both
+  social and technical, happen all the time and Tails is no exception.
+  It is important that we resolve disagreements and differing views
+  constructively. Remember that we’re different. The strength of Tails
+  comes from its varied community, people from a wide range of
+  backgrounds. Different people have different perspectives on issues.
+  Being unable to understand why someone holds a viewpoint doesn’t
+  mean that they’re wrong. Don’t forget that it is human to err and
+  blaming each other doesn’t get us anywhere. Instead, please consider
+  offering your help in order to resolve issues and to help learn
+  from mistakes.
