This is what I think:

The point of a CoC is to tell people that the expected behavior is to
act kindly with respect to each other, and the CoC must foresee and
provide means to resolve any controvercies that may arise, and do this
kindly as much as possible in order to reestablish the community
aggregation and mutual respect.

I don't understand why there is so much friction on adopting a CoC, the
vast majority of open source projects around the world has a CoC which
is created, reviewed and accepted by community members.

The only point I can make is that we need a community revision and
voting of the CoC.

The problem is with what is perceived as acceptable and by whom. Different people perceive things differently based on their background, experiences, education, parenting, intelligence, age, environment, country they live in, etc. etc.

Another thing to consider is what is LinuxCNC? What is the board of directors? is this a democracy or a dictatorship or something else? Who decides which persons that this applies to? Users, persons in IRC, developers that wish to have their code included in the main distribution, forum posters, etc who is this for and what is the real reason for this?

It is a slippery slope.
