Hi Michael,
The process around the new CoC has been, for various reasons, under some
pressure.
I apologize for the moments that I could have asked about your
involvement - or the lacking of - in this process, as member of the
Committee.
Not mentioned in the announcement, is that due to the short notice, some
topics hadn't been fully discussed in the board etc.. So we'll further
pick that up, together with the Committee. Giving opportunities to
improve on short notice too, I expect.
Then:

an obsolete version of the Contributor Covenant for no obvious reason
(the newer 2.1 is unsurprisingly better).
That information is new to me. I'll check that. (*)
This is a particularly wasted opportunity - because a new CoC (with
which I have no problem in principle[1]) can give a useful point to
reset our discourse as a community and to draw a line under some of the
past unhelpful behavior.
I always find it interesting to hear people talking about unhelpful
behavior: it makes me wonder what happened (finding out might take some
work..) and - indeed - what to learn on how to possibly improve etc.
From
a quick skim some details look quite problematic.
Happy to learn your thoughts there.
In general there is substantial scope for mis-use (or even just the
damaging appearance of it) around CoC enforcement ..
Similar here.
Thanks,
Cor
