I think that may be confusing cause and effect. I consider it more
likely that people saw a necessity of formalising relations and
communication _because_ they were amongst the most active and diverse
groups than the other way round.

I'd prefer to do it the other way round: if we can to a reasonable
degree agree that our communication has become a dud, that may be
incentive to get a hold of it.
Independent of promising corrective measures, I would not object to
quoting the GNU kind communication guidelines on our web pages and
asking contributors to give them a good thought.
Quoting relevant parts where people's communication are in obvious need
of improvement are also appropriate.
What I find less effective is just name-dropping of either CoC or the
GNU guidelines without referencing a particular passage. Probably more
so with the latter since they do not contain an inherent threat.
