There is a large debate about whether a code of conduct are good or bad. I think they are good. They are not a magic spell to solve every problem around, but you have something to agree on and then you can have variation about what you do. If the mission is to convince everyone that software freedom is for everyone, it's really critical to have a diverse community. Otherwise, you just have a reflection of the stereotypes, the genre. The one with the more power will be the one very diverse community of contributors.

Welcome back to another season of Code for Thought. And I'd like to kick it off with an interview with Bastien Guerry. Working for the French government, Bastien promotes the use, creation and distribution of Free Software. And in our conversation we discuss the four freedoms as defined by the Free Software Foundation.
Bastien is also an active member of the Emacs community and a contributor to one of the modes: Org mode - a note taking facility. Having used Emacs for a long time it's good to see that it is alive and well.
