[Twisted-Python] Proposal -- Code of Conduct

[Hynek Schlawack]

>> I am sure everyone understands that the Twisted community would love more diversity. While it is hard to achieve, it should be easy to remove one of the obvious blockers -- making underrepresented groups feel more welcome.

>> My current draft, including instructions on how to build it, is in https://github.com/moshez/twisted-coc <https://github.com/moshez/twisted-coc> . I have intentionally not made the built documents available, in an attempt to avoid someone picking them up before they're approved by us.

One of the concerns is licensing; if the text comes via Django, Django credits the "Speak Up!" project, which is CC-BY, apparently from this repository: <https://github.com/jnoller/talk-mentorship <https://github.com/jnoller/talk-mentorship>>.  Another is... is Twisted really distinct enough to need its own CoC?  Just s/Django/Twisted might be good enough?  (Since this is not a fork, figuring out if anything else has changed is rather tedious, even after having read both ;)).

I wonder whether it might make sense to just say we adopt https://www.python.org/psf/codeofconduct/ <https://www.python.org/psf/codeofconduct/> ?

What I would really love is if we could have our own diversity statement like Django has: https://www.djangoproject.com/diversity/ <https://www.djangoproject.com/diversity/>

Cheers,
