While it should not in theory be difficult to update the PSF CoC, in
practice I expect it would be quite difficult for the simple reason that:

"This document was approved by the membership of the Python Software
Foundation during the vote which concluded on 19 April 2013."

Implying that any updates to the CoC would also need to be approved by a
vote of the membership.

So while it'd be nice for the PSF CoC to be updated such that it was
enforceable I think that should block adoption of a CoC by the Twisted
Project.

I'm a +1 on adopting the Django CoC.
