I hear you. Personally my web dev past is so ancient I'm officially not a coder and have to work to get my head around GitHub every time I touch it. Because the Code of Conduct and related documents already lived there, that's where we're working. Taking the liberty of speaking for the team by saying that moving to Google Docs is more administrative labor than we would have the availability to take on at this point, but suggestions are certainly welcome outside GitHub via this list, Slack, Discord, or direct communication with any of us listed at https://github.com/bobbi-SMR/code-of-conduct/blob/listserv_edits/css_volunteers.md. 

If you are someone who was already somewhat familiar with the documents themselves but not super comfortable sifting through GitHub, you can see a summary of changes and additions, (green for additions, red for deletions) here: https://github.com/code4lib/code-of-conduct/pull/80/files

Hi all,

If we are wanting to get community feedback on something like a code of conduct page, may I suggest instead of using github,  we have a shared google doc allowing folks to make comments/have discussions on that document? I'm sure there are probably better ways out there than a google doc, so feel free to chime in with other options. I was just thinking that even though a lot of us are coders and therefore familiar with github, other folks who may not be as familiar with that format might want to have a say.
