Hello Tom, I don't know why you posted this on the marketing list, perhaps we should continue this discussion on discuss@... anyway.
Maybe such a code of conduct is needed, I don't dwell too much on the users list to be frank. However, what's really important is to have this code enforced, and that means to have community members who are able to moderate and help the mailing list in question to remain polite and helpful. In this sense, I would trust a few people more than I would trust a code of conduct. As you do spend much more time on the Users mailing list than me, do you think you need such a code, or do you need more people to help out users (in a polite tone, of course)? Best, Charles.
