[llvm-dev] Resuming the discussion of establishing an LLVM code of conduct

[Tanya Lattner via llvm-dev]

Having a code of conduct like this is just as bad as having no code of conduct at all. It trivializes the importance of a code of conduct and its pretty much impossible to enforce. 

After observing what is happening in many other communities in regards to women in technology, I would be much more likely to participate in a community that actually has a well thought out and meaningful code of conduct.
