Why don't you comment on any of the three links provided in the email you're replying to? That seems like an obvious venue for concerns you might have.

There is consensus at
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:Code_of_conduct_for_technical_spaces/Dra... that the best way to finalize the CoC draft is to focus on a few sections at once (while still allowing people to comment on other ones). This allows progress without requiring people to monitor all sections at once and lets us separate the questions of “what are our goals here?” and “how should this work?”. After these sections are finalized, I recommend minimizing or avoiding later substantive changes to them.
The first sections being finalized are the intro (text before the Principles section), Principles, and Unacceptable behavior. These have been discussed on the talk page for the last two weeks, and appear to have stabilized.
However, there may still be points that need to be refined. Please participate in building consensus on final versions of these sections:

lol, consensus among whom, to what? i am against it (i'd love to send the reasons in another mail though), do i count, and it is still consensus? probably not, because i did maybe two unimportant commits for kiwix. i would prefer if you would be so kind to define one measurable criteria for the question "do we need a code of conduct", no matter if entry or success criteria. e.g
- 50 volunteers from different part of the world saying that we need it
- 20% of committers want it
- after one year 20% more volunteer commits are done
other critieria like "people attending conferences", or "mails written" would be a bad idea, as the goal is to have more contributions, not more conference tourists or mailing list tourists. what you think, matt, or quim ?
