[OSM-talk] BDFL & Moderation

[steve brown]

Hey

As BFDL, do you still want a Code of Conduct, or does your wiki page
suffice? I'm happy to abandon it and get back to coding if it's not
needed in the new system of "dictatorship" (which I support).

I've updated it to merge in various changes suggested by people, and
especially lots of stuff stolen from the great US version.
