Hi, I'll only comment on some specific points, so hence the trimmed email.

It does not have to be large, but something along the lines of "we had to mediate x time in the last 3 months" — and if something significant happened, that of course should be mentioned too. Such a summary report indicates towards the community that 1. the CoC is not just some fancy bit of text on a web server, 2. things (sadly) do happen, and hence nobody can make the argument any more of "the PHP is safe, we don't need a CoC, because nothing ever happens". Sadly, things happen—just like Antony illustrated. And I can say the same from personal experience. cheers, Derick -- http://derickrethans.nl | http://xdebug.org Like Xdebug?
