Last week, Phoronix broke a story about the kernel DRM group over at FreeDesktop.org submitting a pull request for their code of conduct to be included in the kernel docs for the DRM subsystem. The next day it was merged.
I'm particularly interested in if they think this will keep Linus from saying hurtful things to them over lousy code. Discuss.

Sadly, there are a number (usually vanishingly small but quite vociferous) of folks who are fucking assholes.
I wish that the number was vanishingly small.
Around here they all seem to post as AC, so there could be one or one million for all we know.
Given that this is a general discussion site, I don't really have an issue with that.
In a forum for discussion/furtherance of a specific software package(s), that's a different story. If you're not working towards making said project succeed and, in fact, are hindering progress, then you shouldn't be (either voluntarily or otherwise) involved in that forum.
At least that's how I see it.
