Hello,
as part of the move of the pygame (pygame.org)
project repository to github we received feedback that github doesn't
allow children who have been given consent by their parents to
participate.
This concerns Germany, and I guess
Europe (but I don't know the details). Here is the report on our mailing
list from someone involved in an educational organisation in Germany
that teaches children python. Apparently they introduce kids to python,
and even have some of them contributing to free and open source software
projects they are interested in.

I agree with the Python community Code of Conduct that people should
not be excluded, this is an issue for us. I was wondering if anyone on the EDU-sig knows about this, or if anyone can give us guidance?
This
is a delicate issue, and I don't think I have the ability to deal with
this. Which is one of the reasons I'm asking for help.
If
there are no solutions to pass on to this group, I'd like to request
some help raising the issue with github to see if they can come up with a
solution?
thanks,
