Not at all, but I have seen such behavior every now and then, especially when discussion about Enrico's community guidelines popped up, people harshly defended their right for "free speach", so to say, and it wasn't the only occation (have received quite some hateful messages over time for my wish to have a better discussion style within the project). But this is also part of: > In addition, one of the things I've been considering is to lead a > discussion on an overhaul of our code of conduct.

In so many ways, both by people actively ignoring it, and no real actions about "rule breakers" (unless they crossed the line for next to everyone over a long period of time already, which is, IMNSHO, way too late). So how do you envision an overhaul of the CoC could work to not be ignored just again? As a reference for those who are uncertain what we are talking about, I guess you mean the same as me, these rules: http://www.debian.org/MailingLists/#codeofconduct So indeed, like Stefano mentioned, a "sorry, was wound up", "was wrong in my judgement" from the people who are misbehaving would help a lot to get things into better shape, but those are still the few exceptions, unfortunately.
