I'm not sure.  The specific examples you name are probably covered by the
ASF CoC.  And I was planning on integrating point 5 of the Apache Coc (
https://www.apache.org/foundation/policies/conduct.html) into the
moderation guidelines.  But perhaps you are thinking beyond that? Do you
have any examples that wouldn't be covered by the CoC (and that you don't
think should be added to the CoC)?

In short: do you think anything beyond point 5 is necessary?

Best,
Myrle
