Need to support Ubuntu CoC 1.1

This is not an issue that the launchpad team is working on, but in the course of the discussion, I concluded that the basic requirements can be done with little work.
1) Add the new 1.1.txt to lib/lp/registry/codesofconduct
2) Update lp.registry.model.codeofconduct.CodeOfConductConf
   a) set currentrelease to 1.1
   b) set datereleased to the current new date.

Since Person.is_ubuntu_coc_signer looks for the CoC that is signed after the datereleased, all users no longer be listed as signers of the current CoC. Users can sign the new one. Note that by not changing the datereleased, the old CoC is considered to be compatible with the new CoC, that is what was done for the 1.0 and 1.0.1 CoCs

The website has been updated already. LP is the only place missing the new CoC.

Mark's take on this was that all users who have signed the CoC should still be considered to have done so once the new version is released. This is because the new 1.1 release is just a cleanup release.

"There's no requirement to track which version someone signed. That's a nice to have. For now, it's perfectly acceptable just to change the language in the LP tree, which is a one-commit fix."

If the importance could be elevated, that would be appreciated - people are asking about this.

The bugs status reflects its importance to the Launchpad team. This is not an issue that the Launchpad team will scheduled because it is not in our current focus of work. Someone can contribute a patch that I will be happy to review and land. I am have time on a weekend to do make the needed changes.

I'm not personally able to contribute a patch but would encourage anyone able (whether a Launchpad developer or not) to work on this as it is important to the Ubuntu project. Given that Launchpad is, in practice, the only way for users to sign the code of conduct, the fact that the Ubuntu community has passed a new version is essentially useless until it makes its way onto Launchpad.

I fully accept that the Launchpad team has its own priorities and isn't subject to the priorities of the Ubuntu project, but the two teams do have a close relationship and work together on many issues. This is a case where in theory I suppose that the project drivers should probably be able to make this change itself, but can't do it, at least the way Launchpad is currently set up.

I can commit to doing this before the January 2010 release of Launchpad. If I can do it in the next two weekends the fix will be released in December.

I pushed a fix to lp:~dholbach/launchpad/coc-1.1 - I can't tell wether it is good enough, I just tried to replace all occurrences of it. Help (or somebody who takes it from here) would be much appreciated.

Wow. Thanks. This looks good. I'll propose a merge and start testing it now..

Fixed in launchpad db-devel r8747.
