Thanks for all the efforts on this. It is nice to see us explicitly moving toward modernizing our community policies and creating an openly inclusive community. There are a couple of notes I have about this:
I think we need language that explicitly states that this is about participation within postgresql.org only. It is not postgresql.org's mission or purpose to police actions outside of their domain. The following minor modification would work:
"To that end, we have established this Code of Conduct for community interaction and participation within the Postgresql.org project."
There is no language that protects different political or social views. In today's climate it is important especially as we are a worldwide project. Something simple like the following should be enough:
"Examples of personal characteristics include, but are not limited to age, race, national origin or ancestry, religion, political affiliation, social class, gender, or sexual orientation."
