Wonder if the following might find a place in the CoC, if and when plans materialize to change the content -

Be 'selfless' in whatever you do for the community - the returns, the rewards, truly are manyfold . Ubuntu and Free Software are valid proof of this !
If it is the name, the fame and the money that are more important to you, (along with their shackles - restrictive licenses and patents) . Well, what we have to offer here is something much more valuable, priceless - Freedom !
Come join us on the Launchpad.

More than guiding 'conduct' the above is meant to 'INSTILL' in a person the precise reason why 'he' or 'she' is contributing towards Free Software.
Further, the line 'Come join us on the Launchpad' (intended to sound more like an 'order') is directed towards passers-by with wrong notions about our community, to at least take a look at what we are upto, and perhaps spread the word of 'Freedom'.
The above may be modified in part or whole, or excluded totally if found to be unnecessary or irrelevant.
