FreeBSD has announced a new LLVM-derived code of conduct.

According to a 2018 survey "35% were dissatisfied with the code of conduct adopted in 2018, 34% were neutral, and 30% were satisfied." So, they held another survey at the start start of June:

Which code of conduct should FreeBSD adopt?

Retain the current code of conduct:

RESULTS

  • 4% favoured keeping the current code of conduct
  • 33% favoured the Go-derived code of conduct
  • 63% favoured the LLVM-derived code of conduct.

Thus, the Core Team, following the preference of a majority of active
FreeBSD developers, adopted the LLVM-derived code of conduct.

    the CoC enforcers have repeatedly shown

    To whom, *exactly*, are you referring?

    And "Radical Leftists" or "Pink-haired SJWs" are not exact answers.

    Names please. With links to the *specific* statements which informs your assessment of *those specific individuals*.

    I'm not playing gotcha with you here either. Provide references to specific individuals and their involvement in specific acts of intolerance/censorship/general malicious jackassery and I will happily condemn those pieces of shit for what they are.

    Please. Do tell.

    Disingenuous. Look at the cases of David Bucci [prcg.com] or Alex Holowka. [nichegamer.com] From Brendan Eich through the guys fired for making a private dongle joke at a Python conference, the wordpress developer dumped for having a sex fetish, James Damore and recently the New York Times editor. All out of a job for violating the "safe space" of narcissists.

    How many examples do you need? Just as with #MeToo [detroitnews.com] people have wised up. In the UK they even made "unfriendliness" [barristermagazine.com] a "non crime hate crime" [lbcnews.co.uk] so you'd not be able to tell crazies to get lost despite having freedom of association and the fact a large number of so called "hate crimes" are hoaxes. [usatoday.com] Nobody here can be unaware of such events and nobody should support empowering sociopaths to play victim and bully people.

      And what do any of those folks or issues have to do with, *in your words* "CoC Enforcers"?

      You moved the goalposts. Why would you do that? ISTR there are a number of folks that have created controversy WRT FOSS codes of conduct, yet you don't mention any of those folks.

      Rather, you bring up several things that are completely unrelated to FOSS, or to Codes of Conduct.

      Is that a reading comprehension failure on your part (odd, especially given that this whole topic is about the FreeBSD Coc), or do you have some sort of agenda that requires you to ignore the subject at hand? What a shame.

        Angry, white, heterosexual, protestant male, most likely, not getting enough CoC. Creating toxic environment. Unsafe at any peed. Would not hire again. One and 1/2 stars.
