Hi, On slides 5 in the speaker notes (which I assume will be published?) it says: ""Trusted contacts will emotionally support you, but absolutely can not take any other action. Effectively, our CoC creates a false sense of security. So our community’s current status is: if you get severely harassed at the party, which is a thing that happens, we can say how sorry we are for you, and tomorrow and next year your assailant will be sitting next to you. There is a CoC, but there is no accountability or consequences.”" This is not true and as I pointed out earlier on this list the Trusted contacts (and the RIPE Chair) have taken action in the past. I agree that the responsibilities of the Trusted Contacts may not be well understood or documented, but stating it like in the text above is wrong. Mirjam On 17/10/2019 14:58, Brian Nisbet wrote:
Folks,
Amanda, Denesh, Sasha and I have put this presentation together for the community plenary this afternoon. It is forthright, but we definitely feel that it needs to be so.
We are going to make it clear that we're still accepting comments on v3.0, but also still looking at having this in place for RIPE 80 if at all possible.
I know I and others present in Rotterdam have got some really good further feedback.
And, of course, as with all things, whatever CoC we have is never set in stone, it's always changeable as situations change.
Thanks for everyone's input on this so far!
Brian
