What does CoC stand for?

Still can't believe that this abbreviation is actually in use without any objections while there are talks about needing to rename the Coq language.

I imagine that most people saying "CoC" out loud are not saying "cock", instead either "Code of conduct", or "cee oh cee".

I also imagine the same people pronounce the other word "cee oh cee kay".

I myself pronounce it so it rhymes with and sounds identically to "cock", for several reasons.

CoC = "Code of Conduct"

I haven't followed Python dev, so can't comment about how the CoC is being used in practice.

In tough situations, CoC powers are inversely proportional to the height of your position on the totem pole.
