Great. All I mean to say is that I disagree with Jeff's belief that
"their misinterpreting it shows more about them than the CoC itself".
People assuming that "code" means "code" aren't off their rockers. If
it means that we need to come up with a better word that more clearly
describes the CoC's intent, such as "declaration of principles",
great. Let's call it that instead and move on. But let's not insult
people who hear "code" and think "laws" along the way. That would be
against articles 1 and 3 of our declaration of principles.

Best,
Dom
