Since there is a lot of "it" and "this" in both your and Daniel's
messages, without clarifying what you're both actually talking about, I
think for clarity it should be noted that, AFAIU, the decision to adopt
the CoC is up to the freedesktop.org admins, not the X.org board, and
the discussion about enforcing is to take place between the two.
