We strongly believe that all RIPE NCC-organised events should follow the
same CoC, and we think this is something the community should be able to
agree on. ….

The RIPE NCC is of course free to make rules within its area of responsibility. I expect that this will happen in the RIPE tradition by consulting the communities along the lines Mirjam and Niall are setting out within this discussion and not by unilateral action on the part of the RIPE NCC. I hope that the RIPE NCC will be able to keep facilitating local and regional communities while respecting the local codes and customs.

My point is simply, as a response to Randy´s "my naïve view is that, if the ncc is an organiser, then the coc MUST apply.»,
to state my agreement.

In my days as RIPE Chair I offered to the MD of the Ripe NCC to use the community developed Code of Conduct for Ripe NCC Events.
As MD I am now stating my intent to make that happen.

I trust that the RIPE Community is able to agree on a common code of conduct for the whole community just as we have common address policies for the whole community.

Hans Petter Holen
