I can see the logic in prohibiting abusive behaviour on lists and other such fora and maintaining it that way. I can also see that the line won't be clear and there will be several special cases that have to be dealt with on a one-by-one basis. Mistakes will be made on both sides but people have to be mature enough to move on. One thing that I'd like to see more of is CoC's being scoped to a certain list, event or something that's clearly definable rather than a broad vague entity like "the community". If someone behaves in a certain way on a forum other than the one for which the CoC applies, it shouldn't be usable to enforce punitive action like expulsion.
