As I said on another thread: Zephyr jut adopted the contributor
covenant but stripped all the enforcement clauses:

https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/zephyr/pull/10356

So I think we could modify it to suit our own community as well.

I don't think when it comes to CoCs one size fits all so I can see us
making local patches that aren't upstream because upstream seems to be
concentrating more on the github than mailing list communities.
