Hi all,

This is my first mail to the list so please let me know if I do anything wrong or if there's a better channel by which to have this kind of discussion.

I'd like to propose adoption of an alternative code of conduct, the Go Code: https://golang.org/conduct

The primary reasons for suggesting this code are:

- The Go Code focuses primarily on desired behaviours ('be patient', 'be respectful') and only secondarily on 'avoiding destructive behaviours'. - The Go Code explicitly notes that it "is not a mechanism for people to silence others with whom they disagree." - this was a major concern on the ML, so codifying that this usage will not be accepted in the CoC itself is a step in the right direction. - The Go Code encourages everybody to follow the code in all spaces, but limits explicit enforcement to Go spaces.
- The Go Code is far more clear in defining prohibited behaviours.

I've already proposed this idea over at GitHub, but it strikes me that the correct channel for discussion is PHP internals.

- Matt
