Be polite and behave like an adult. This is not a code in any meaningful sense except trivial - just as "main() {}" is a program in C, but not a useful one except for doing nothing. People's notions of "being an adult" differ. Now, it can be argued - and was argued - that we don't actually need a code, but then discussing details of the code is useless, of course. > rules doesn't make something it unsafe place.

I've never been in support group, so I'm not sure what is meant by "act like a support group", but I guess where CoC pushes us depends on CoC? That's why we spend time on figuring it out. > If somebody harrases you or something, you can always sue him - and I think we should not disseminate legal advice here :) But without being a lawyer I can assure you suing somebody on the internet for trolling is not a winning proposition. -- Stas Malyshev smalyshev@gmail.com
