Btw. let me add two URLs that convinced me that we need such a policy: https://lwn.net/Articles/417952/ http://jezebel.com/5705980/women-fed-up-with-open-source-community-creeps
we need a way to avoid such things. I personnally think a written policy is of little use. It makes us feel good and keep bad old habits... I speciall y like this link: http://geekfeminism.wikia.com/index.php?title=Timeline_of_incidents but then you simply discover our society [our :-))) you see I'm in occident] is incredibly sexist, what may not be a surprise. this makes me think we need actions, not policies. The problem seems to be mostly sexism. If so *we* should have, as organisation, a self policy, specially aimed to the presenters and organisers. The harassment list of Jos seem aimed at individual harassement, when I see the references more speaking of collective harassement. For example, the more recent thing: http://blog.mozilla.com/dherman/2011/05/02/a-failure-of-imagination/ the problem there is not that of the public, but that of the organiser. Thats why I asked for a survey of the problems. I never imagined a conference organiser could do such a thing! We need a list of stupid things to avoid. Nobody will read (or remember code of conduct), but some small sentences, yes.
