[ILUG] Code of conduct

Cutting to the chase of my January 2006 remarks on the similar (but 
wordier) Ubuntu example:  This would put give a dandy cudgel to any
passive-aggressive member who decides to proclaim that he/she has been
made to feel "unconfortable or threatened" by someone he/she has a
grudge against.

Also:  The code attempts to legislate "respect" by everyone to everyone
else.  That is simply not a reasonable goal.  _Civility_ is.

Does ILUG wish to sanction members who are unfailingly polite but
consider some particular person's set of views to be without merit?
Why?
