I spent some time reading both and I also like the ASF guidelines better. 

I like the ASF guidelines’ emphasis on values and assuming good intentions. 
Especially that last bit is missing from the Contributor Covenant Code of 
Conduct, which seems a bit more distrustful of people’s intentions and (in my 
view) seems more interested in preventing/punishing bad behavior than 
encouraging good behavior.
