"The Initiative lists related projects from the Internet Engineering Task Force ... "
No. The IETF doesn't have a "project" and the draft they cite is a personal contribution that has been widely criticised. That github repo is basically a scribbling pad with no status for the moment.
That's not to say the IETF plans to increase the use of offensive or exclusionary language. But the way an ongoing discussion is misleadingly cited as a "related project" is tendentious to say the least. To say that in a more dark grey and pale grey way, it's a lie.
