The GCC project does not have a code of conduct, and it does not have a managing hierarchy. Nobody supervises the maintainers. GCC has a minimum of non-technical policies/rules, and it has no enforcement mechanism. There really isn't any place to file a complaint. You can complain to the GCC steering committee if you like (https://gcc.gnu.org/steering.html; I am a member), but there are a very limited number of actions that the steering committee could take, and it is very unlikely that the committee would actually do anything. Basically, GCC is a cooperative project. It's not a company. People don't work for GCC. I'm sorry you are having trouble, but I don't think there is much that the GCC project can do to help. Ian
