+1, I've just read through all this discussion, and I favor this approach too. I overall agree with Scipy CoC and would be fine accepting it as is. I might prefer it to be shorter and less legalistic as well. One of the goals of the CoC is to attract new and diverse contributors, but we don't want to push anyone away with a scary legal document either. But CoCs are a fairly new and somewhat untested phenomenon in open source, so given that the scipy CoC seems like a good and reasonable effort. By the way, I thought these articles on CoCs were interesting [1][2], including the interviews with open-source CoC creators on their experience in [1] on pros and cons of "rule-based" CoCs.
