[diversity] RIPE Code of Conduct 2.0

Mirjam, Vesna, Rob,

thank you very much for picking this up. I appreciate it very much
because this is something all of you did not originally sign up for.

Typing 'code of conduct transparency report' into your favourite search
engine will give you some examples.

I liked

There are quite a number from djangocon where I assume much of the text
in the current draft originates.

Some of these are by-the-way also quite educational about what the
current draft can lead to, like: "One of the lightning talks contained
unfortunate phrasing directed towards one of the attendees. Video from
that lightning talk won’t be published online." No mention of who
decided this and how. Was it voluntary? This is the kind of censorship
that we as a community should not want.
