We have not. https://www.debian.org/code_of_conduct.en starts off with: "The Debian Project, the producers of the Debian system, have adopted a code of conduct for participants to its mailinglists, IRC channels and other modes of communication within the project." Packaged software is not a "mode of communication within the project". The code of conduct, therefore, does not apply to it. We may decide that certain language is inappropriate in our packages, and if so, you can start censoring packages in the archive under the code of conduct. I make no statement as to whether I believe that is the right course of action at this point; bring it to a GR and you will see. Absent that action, however, the code of conduct does not apply to relevant content of packages in the archive. -- w@uter.{be,co.za} wouter@{grep.be,fosdem.org,debian.org} I will have a Tin-Actinium-Potassium mixture, thanks.
