What if they have never participated in a community forum, but use PostgreSQL at work? Maybe they would eventually submit a bug report or ask a question. How do you gauge that?

In retrospect I revoke my support of this idea entirely. It just isn't
our jurisdiction. If doesn't happen in our yard then it isn't our business.

I would also note that this document isn't going to be the end all of
enforcement. Ultimately -core has the final say. -Core can determine on
its own if it wants to enforce against a particular community member
(with or without the CoC).
