I disagree. Many people are opposed to CoCs for a variety of reasons including the fact that many CoCs are political in nature. Others oppose them for legal liability reasons. On his radio show Ask Noah (a radio show about Linux), Noah has interviewed several people who oppose CoCs for political and legal reasons. The Southeast Linux Fest in particular explicitly decided not to have a CoC for mostly legal reasons (which he described in episode 80). I do agree asking people to simply not be stupid doesn't seem to work these days for whatever reason. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
