I think this is a great idea to have the community work on the Code of
Conduct but do note that TPF has/had a lawyer helping to write a Code
of Conduct. Can someone from TPF chime to say if we can run a new
community edited Code of Conduct by the lawyers and what would the
timeframe be?  There already is a CoC for YAPC::NA,
http://www.yapcna.org/yn2013/code-of-conduct.html.
