Abstract

Social inclusion is a fundamental feature of thriving societies. This paper first investigates barriers for social inclusion in online Software Engineering (SE) communities, by identifying a set of attributes and organising them as a taxonomy. Second, by applying the taxonomy and analysing language used in the comments posted by members in 189 Gitter projects (with > 3 million comments), it presents evidence for the presence of the social exclusion problem. Third, it presents a framework for improving social inclusion in SE communities.
