Yes, you make a good point. That's what I meant with my proof of the
pudding comment. As you say, looks fairly harmless on the surface, but
you can detect a leftist undercurrent and as you say, it can explode in
your face.

As for OpenBSD I cannot find anything except perhaps this:

Does OpenBSD has a Code Of Conduct?

No and there is no known plan of having one.

This is a topic upsetting OpenBSD people, just don’t ask about it and send patches.

https://dataswamp.org/~solene/2018-03-16-openbsd-unofficial-faq.html

Looks very promising! =)

And also something here:

https://www.mail-archive.com/misc@openbsd.org/msg167105.html

         I believe OpenBSD's code of conduct can be summed up as "if you are the
         type of person who needs a code of conduct to teach to you how to human
         then you are not welcome here".

         At least I hope so.

     I always thought it could be summed up as "Don't piss off Theo".  ;-)


... :)

He's setting a standard. So I don't have to worry about talking freely
about what I think here. And that's just one reason why I try to
migrate my machines to OpenBSD ...

And one of the first things I do when looking at software, and whether
it's useful for my needs or not: Are those who write it adults or are
they whinies with problems regarding understandable speech? I'm
trying to keep the latter mostly at safe distances from me, and I
tend to avoid their code getting installed onto my machines ...

So that's another reason I'm glad Theo de Raadt is setting a certain
standard here ...

So yes, for sure: "Don't piss off Theo". And no smiley.
