<p dir="ltr">Chiming in just to say, +1 on those two suggested next steps. </p>
<p dir="ltr">I'm not sure if anyone would take issue with using Google forms as opposed to an open source reporting system run on OSGeo infrastructure (given the recent discussions on OSGeo-Discuss about code hosting), but I think that the ease of use for Google forms would make it a great choice.</p>
<p dir="ltr">The article on enforcement is very thorough, and I think it provides a good method to approach enforcement in a reasoned and de-escalating way. The line "Generally conference staff are not equipped for evidence gathering: we suggest not going around and "interviewing" others involved." The enforcers are not detectives or the police, and it makes sense that the sole focus of any actions would be "<b>the safety of your community members from harassment</b>".</p>

One thing I've been pondering since seeing the first
few questions about<br>
CoC being discussed is how to "classify" what is
considered a CoC<br>
breach. I'm yet to see any hard guidelines as to what
is/is not<br>
acceptable. (And this sucks up large amounts of
bandwidth on email lists).<br>

<div>You did good research on this for FOSS4G CoC so it'd
be great if you could get the ball rolling here! <br>

Ok, I'll start looking into it.<br>

Looking around for what we can borrow as a standard
reference, I wonder<br>
whether we can borrow from film classifications:<br>
<br>
I'm familiar with the Australian classifications
(being an Australian<br>
myself), which are well defined:<br>
