I find the doom-and-gloom over the CoC change absolutely silly. Plenty of projects have a CoC and none of them have just died a fiery death because there were rules against treating people badly. As other people pointed out, there's a big difference between putting everything into 15 layers of business speak and just not insulting people. Linus is, to me, obviously advocating the latter.
Yes. It's baffling to me that people can't see the difference between "this doesn't work" and "this doesn't work you stupid cunt", or can't see how the latter is corrosive.
