FWIW, I did read some of that thread, and the point that seemed to me
to possibly bring that situation within reach of a CoC was that the
contributor was posting offensive-to-some views from an account that
explicitly identified him as a core opal contributor. As such, it
wasn't totally unreasonable to see him as representing the project
in those statements.
(Note: I have not verified the facts of the matter, but this is what
was alleged in the thread.)
