That seems like a pretty good scratch CoC to me. (See my other note about how other communities deal with this.) It's concrete, short, to the point, and a useful thing to point to when some flamewar breaks out over irrelevant stuff. If people want a CoC, I think it should be something like the above. > My other concern about CoCs is I fear someone is going to come and demand > we change Master/Slave to Leader/Follower, because Master is a male term > and Slave is insensitive to grand-children of slaves. If someone did that, it would fall under (2), no? (I note that a recent RFC, of which I am a co-author, about DNS terminology did say that "primary" and "secondary" were to be preferred over "master" and "slave". I didn't personally agree with the claim, but that's what got consensus.)
