But a static CoC is also impractical, considering that in the last years CoCs have advanced a lot and now we know what works better on each kind of organizations. What I propose is to evolve, not to throw all the work already done. As I already said on previous mails, the work done was outstanding for the time it was written. Which may seem very recently but considering how much we have advanced, is already old.

Let me give you one simple example of something that doesn't make sense right now: We cannot say dirty words, but we can harass someone using beautiful words as long as we claim good intent. That doesn't make sense. So, precisely one of the things you quote above as what we should do is one of the things that are wrong. This article can explain the situation better than me: https://thebias.com/2017/09/26/how-good-intent-undermines-diversity-and-inclusion/ This would be the easiest thing to propose to change because once you understand it, it becomes obvious. But there's more. >
