Since Guix has (in my experience) always be a nice place, I don't think this is necessary to have this. As much goodwill is the intention of this code of conduct, the ideas behind it don't make consensus in Free Software communities which can lead into unnecessary divisions (and we have already a lot of them). See: http://esr.ibiblio.org/?p=6918 The problem is that this code of conduct pretends to give a warranty of an "harassment-free experience", which is is a slippery slope (Sorry to not be able to expand more on it in english). IMHO it would be preferable to revert this commit, and let the necessary decisions be taken case by case when a bad behavior among Guix contributors arise. Thanks, -- Mathieu Lirzin
