I was considering saying that we shouldn't add one unless the 
need presents itself, and for the most part, our community has 
been well-behaved, but your response is spot-on. About the only 
reason that I can think of why we might really benefit from such 
a document would be if we did have a problem, and we needed a way 
to fairly justify kicking people out of the newsgroup or from 
other official D channels, then we'd have a set of rules to point 
to that the person had violated rather than it just being the 
say-so of someone in charge. But fortunately, we haven't 
generally had problems like that. Occasionally, we've had a bad 
apple show up and cause problems, but none have stayed around 
long term, and things are normally pretty civil around here.
