This is a proposal to switch the base for the Code of Conduct to the Go Code, because:
The Go Code focuses primarily on desired behaviours ('be patient', 'be respectful') and only secondarily on 'avoiding destructive behaviours'.
The Go Code explicitly notes that it "is not a mechanism for people to silence others with whom they disagree." - this was a major concern on the ML, so codifying that this usage will not be accepted in the CoC itself is a step in the right direction.
The Go Code encourages everybody to follow the code in all spaces, but limits explicit enforcement to Go spaces.
The Go Code is far more clear in defining prohibited behaviours.
We should still work to refine the code, but I think that this code is far more likely to achieve a consensus, because it does not suffer from many of the charges levelled at the Contributor covenant.

While I personally don't think there's much wrong with the Contributor Covenant, I really like Go's approach. It defining not only a set of enforceable rules, but also positive values, encouraged/discouraged behaviours, and how enforcement works, is a big plus. It means we don't have to (badly?) reinvent the wheel on those issues.
