From a corporate perspective this has very little to do with CoC. It has to do with simplifying their life. CoC enforcement is surely and element on the list, but there are many others. As you noted, no one talks about it. Why? Because that is not the problem.
This whole crisis is not because of GitHub Enterprise usage alone. It is because of the absolute lack of communication and the disrespect towards the maintainers. That is so much worse than some CoC enforcement.
- RNCTX 5y agoThe details don't support that assessment. Chain of events: 1) The CLA library requested by the foundation was reported broken by an admin one of the member project repos. That member project repo had refused to turn over control of said repo to the foundation specifically because of the perceived overreach in authority stemming from the code of conduct policy of said foundation. 2) The exec director, or someone on the foundation's staff, told the person reporting the issue with the CLA library that the solution was to make the foundation account an admin on their repo. 3) When the foundation is made an admin on said repo, the repo is silently transferred to the foundation's account in the middle of the night with no warnings. 4) Then, exec director force-merges a pull in another repo, of the same CLA library. This is all a very useful glimpse into how corporations will use their diversity hires to get rid of people who refuse to give the corporation what it wants without any compensation or resistance.
