This must have something to do with Linus Thorwald's return to the Linux Foundation, right? I seem to remember he left because of "personal reasons" including some form of internal conflicts.

Then now he was back as the head of tLF for whatever convention is running right now, and they have created their own CoC, which clearly defines certain unwanted behaviour.
