 Bans (temporary or permanent) should only be used in egregious cases where a pattern of disregard for the CoC is demonstrated.
+==== Appeals ====
+Either party may appeal an action by raising the concern to internals@php.net. PHP project members may then vote to overturn or strengthen the action as necessary (votes require 50%+1 to overturn, and 2/3 majority to strengthen the action).
+It is worth noting that this may be used as a technique to attempt to disclose the reporter to make them the subject of public scrutiny. Therefore reasonable attempts at confidentiality should be maintained, and the teams (CoC team and PHP project members) should keep this in mind.
 ==== Confidentiality ====
 All incidents are to be kept in the strictest form of confidentiality. The CoC team shall be the only group to know about the reporter and the precise details of any incident. Any communication outside of the team (including fact-finding, investigation, documentation, etc) shall not include identifying information as to the reporter unless agreed by the reporter or is otherwise public.
+Additionally, reasonable attempts shall be made as to the confidentiality to the accused person. This includes transparency reports where no significant action is taken (due to lack of evidence or that the CoC team determines it wasn't significant enough to warrant punishment).
