Community Code of Conduct.
We already have some text along these lines in the
<http://okfn.org/governance/>  document (excerpted below).

Ubuntu Code of Conduct:<http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct>
Anyone have thoughts, suggestions or opinions here?

I think the existing text on the governance page already covers the same ground as the Ubuntu text (Tolerance, Open Discussion, Meritocracy). Maybe a "Collaboration" section would be useful, if that's not already taken for granted.

Important to make sure OKF's work always reflects these commitments (Open Discussion, particularly) and I'm glad to see some overlap with the issues I'm attempting to describe on the okfn-governance list; keeping OKF "open and decentralised" in accordance with this guiding philosophy, as the Foundation rapidly expands its activities:

Open Discussion
Open discussion allows the most promising ideas to come to the fore,
and for decisions to be reached on a consensus basis.

Meritocracy
our governance structure is simply there to
ensure that there is a solid institutional framework to support these
activities.

Tolerance

Differences are recognised as a creative force

good luck,
