I haven't met any of the people involved but I recall other folks saying the CoC was being used inappropriately https://twitter.com/puffnfresh/status/519887926

  We're actually conflating two separate but correlated events here, as a few folks in that thread have later acknowledged. Most folks agree that Tony should be off the project. The problem of one overzealous person trying to get Tony to shut up is a separate and regrettable decision on his part. CoCs act to protect people from behavior like Tony's, not to be a cudgel. AFAIK, it's faced subsequent edits to improve that. It's unfortunate that Tony's become so incapable of modulating his behavior in public that he forces these issues. It's doubly regrettable that folks associated with the same projects he has contributed to could not handle the unusual situation with more grace and poise.
