Hi Leo & TF members, I’ve been reading up on the CoC and the status of it as of today. In the document, there is no mention of unwanted behaviour / attention that could be classified as stalking. Under the section: aggressive communication, there are several examples of what would be seen as inappropriate behaviour.. However, “classic” stalking (online or in person) is something that I miss here. Please take this feedback into account before the final version is published.

I have been keeping track of the comments so the TF has a good idea of what changes we need to make to the draft. I've tabulated them below and it would be good if people could let me know if I have misunderstood what they meant. Also, some people have commented but not stated if they support the daft as is, or would support the draft with a minor change. I've placed a question mark next to names where I'm not sure what a person's position is. It would be great if you could clarify your position.

Wants the RIPE NCC staff to always intermediate if a report is made to the police and understands that there could be liability if people know of an incident and do not report it Add protection for those who do not speak English as a first language Does not think "calling people names" is clear for non-native speakers Rephrase “Deliberately outing private details about someone without their consent” Rephrase “Pushing someone to drink or take drugs” Add a prohibition against spam Forbid using language a non-native speaker might misunderstand Similarly, the CoC Team should accommodate cultural differences Wants the process in the same document Sasha Romijn ? Question about how the team would determine if an act should be reported to the police and a preference for that to be controlled by the subject of the act Jim Reid ?

Clarification on making a police report Echoes the question about the role of the PC (see above) Rob Evans ?

Confidentiality and control are important in helping people have the confidence to make a report
