Hi, X.org adopted a Code of Conduct a while ago. We haven't had to have an external entity handle things, so long as the people on the CoC team are not in positions like being secretary (where there could be a conflict of interest as a result). We also have members of the Code of Conduct team and the board go through CoC training courtesy of:
https://otter.technology/code-of-conduct-training/ As well our CoC is here: https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/CodeOfConduct/ I'm a little surprised by some projects here mentioning that OSS communities have no place handling a Code of Conduct, this was never even mentioned as something to worry about during my training.
