Hindering Backchannels Rule[tm] cure:
Yesterday I spoke with Bradley Kuhn. We noted that copyleft-next never
adopted a code of conduct -- as I put it (paraphrasing),
"copyleft-next is so *old* that it largely predates the contemporary
FOSS concern regarding adoption of codes of conduct". Leaving aside
the fact that copyleft-next has been a bit dormant for quite some time
(something which I am hoping may change in the near future), I believe
copyleft-next ought to adopt a Code of Conduct. As I think Bradley
said in the conversation yesterday, it may be that the Hindering
Backchannels Rule properly belongs within a Code of Conduct.
Incorporating HBR in a Code of Conduct may address concerns about
enforceability.
