Code of Conduct and Compliance

@nadia do we have a document we can recycle from Edgeryders?

we dont have one yet, but this is a good prompt to create one. Edgeryders has a netiquette guide as well as the terms of use and privacy policy of the platform

Netiquette: https://edgeryders.eu/t/netiquette/45

Terms of Use and privacy policy https://edgeryders.eu/t/id/44

I started some work for ClimateGains
Our values: https://climategains.community/t/our-values-projects-your-project-proposals/385
Financial Transparency: https://climategains.community/t/standards-transparency-expenditures/382

But we have yet to weave this all into a code of conduct.

ok so i read through it, remixed with a bit of stuff i had lying around et voila - this is aspirational , but i would like to build it into our stuff eventually
