Paul, VP9KF (W4/G4BKI) has posted on his blog that the 'DX Code of Conduct' initiative appears to have drifted away from the originators of the concept, FOC
Either way, the DX Code of Conduct website which Paul is a little disparaging about DOES take the DX Code of Conduct to a new level and invites amateurs to sign up to it. If you sign up to it, your callsign is displayed as a mark of your commitment to reducing the level of poor behaviour on the DX bands.
Paul's right - there are a few technical issues with the site - which I am sure can be resolved really quickly, but the intent and concept is great. It's good to see the idea being developed and moved forward.
You can sign up and demonstrate your commitment here

Hi Tim,
Great to bump in to you! You are right about W6SJ Randy's DX-Code.org website: he has hand-crafted the HTML so the layout, site structure, page titles etc. are not exactly ideal, but basically functional. His heart's definitely in the right place though!

PS Why you no work me?
Gary!
Great to hear from you and hope all's going well.
Yes, I'm pleased to see the DX Code of Conduct moving on. I wonder if it will have any effect when those new DXCC entities hit the bands this month! We can but hope!
Certainly look forward to seeing you on the air.
Vy 73, Tim
