I have to say that this seems like a red herring to me.
1. The CoC committee handles actual incidents involving real people. It's not their job to boil the ocean and create a
newworld; they deal with the matters brought before them. I have no reason to believe that they will not apply good
senseand judgement to the handling of the specific cases.
2. I don't think that there is a country where someone being driven out of a technical community by harassment is an
acceptablelocal value.
3. The only actual real-life example of a culture clash that I've seen offered up here is the ability to say "c*nt" on
atechnical mailing list about databases. That seems a very strange and specific hill to choose to die on in this
discussion.
