Hello,

Out of curiosity, was this decision triggered by an incident, i.e., is there
any motiviation for this beyond being a nice thing to have?

We will start with the [Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct](https://www.contributor-covenant.org/version/1/4/code-of-conduct.html) as a starting point and adapt it to the needs of the Qt Project.  When a draft is complete, we will submit it to the Qt mailing list for review and approval.  If approved we will make it official and it will become the Qt Project Code of Conduct (making it a QUIP)
