Looking around at various Conference "Codes of Conduct", I found the
O'Reilly definition to be eloquently worded, and less threatening to
potential attendees. (Although I still can't find a clear definition
of "sexual images".)<br>

most people are intelligent and well-intended, and we're not
inclined to tell people what to do. However, we want every
O'Reilly conference to be a safe and productive environment for
everyone. To that end, this code of conduct spells out the
behavior we support and don't support at conferences. The core of
our approach is this:</p>

counter to our company values. More importantly, it's counter to
our values as human beings.</p>

unequivocal support of appropriate behavior by all participants at
technical events, including all O'Reilly conferences. We invite
you to help us make each O'Reilly conference a place that is
welcoming and respectful to all participants, regardless of race,
gender, age, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance,
national origin, ethnicity, or religion. So that everyone can
focus on the conference itself, and the great networking and
community richness that happens when we get together in person, we
will not tolerate harassment of conference participants in any
form—in person or online.</p>

One of the main reasons to adopt a Code of Conduct is
*precisely* because we are such a diverse,

<div style="word-wrap:break-word" class="">Hi
David,
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">First of all thank you for your
pointing out. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Yep. We’ve discussed CoC a little
bit when we prepared for the website. However
we didn’t add CoC to the website at that time.
The reasons we didn’t include CoC are as
follows:</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">1. Actually we didn’t understand
what is CoC and what is the main purpose of
CoC. Without understanding the real meaning of
CoC, we didn’t want to add that to the website
just like accessary. We knew there were CoCs
at FOSS4G 2013 and 2014.(Many of LOC members
attended both conferences) After reading and
reviewing CoCs from FOSS4G 2013 and 2014, we
thought that those CoC are sorts of morals or
rules that we should follow through the life
and that should be part of our life(except
over sexual issue, I’ll talk this later) all
the time. CoC message can be summarised just
like this. No Discrimination, No Harassment,
No Sexuality. I thought No Discrimination, No
Harassment are the baseline morals of our
general life to live together with others. We
should follow those baseline whether we are in
the conference or outside of the conference
just like air. When I saw that CoC at past
FOSS4G site, I got feeling just like this.
“You should breathe the air, otherwise you
will be expelled without refund.” And I was
also curious that “And then am I allowed to
discriminate other people outside of the
conference?” I’m not trying to neglect the
importance of CoC. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">In short, we were not fully
convinced whether we needed to add CoC to the
website and didn’t understand the real meaning
of CoC at that time. However we are not
reluctant to add CoC to the website
if everyone is assured of the expectation of a
welcoming conference!</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">2. Regarding over sexuality issue,
I totally agree with Cameron’s view. Feeling
sexuality is somewhat different culture by
culture and region by region. A month ago I
was somewhat shocked when I got message from
U.S. that my recent presentation named "7
Reasons: Why you should come to FOSS4G 2015
Seoul” included over-sexual photo. Actually I
included a photo of very popular Korea girl
group there. I didn’t think that the photo is
so sexual. However he felt that photo is
over-sexual. I could say that if you show that
picture to general Korean people and ask them
whether that photo is over-sexual, 8~9 out 10
will not agree with that. However if you show
a picture of a woman with low-cut neck line,
many Koreans will say that that is too
sexual. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">There is another issues over
“Sexual” as well. Who will set up the standard
of sexual? Who will decide which is sexual or
not? Organiser? And then will you expel the
attendee who believe that his/her image is not
sexual in his culture but sexual in U.S.? If
FOSS4G will take place in Middle East, should
we follow their standard over sexual? Also I
believe that harsh banning on sexuality could
hurt the freedom of speech as well. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">3. Just like Cameron mentioned, as
Chairperson of the FOSS4G this year, I have
the responsibility to make the event <span
style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255)"
class="">a pleasant experience for everyone
and not to feel them they are lectured or
suppressed at the same time. </span></div>

<div class="">Has your team
considered adding a code of
conduct to your website? </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">The past two FOSS4G
global events have included
CoC's on the website as well as
asking registrants to agree to
the CoC by a checkbox on the
registration form.</div>

are some examples that have been
used.<br class="">
</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">We have received a
lot of positive response from
attendees since adding these to
the conferences and have
certainly seen an impact in
gender diversity since
incorporating CoC's into our
websites along with other
outreach and diversity
initiatives. It is a very easy
step towards ensuring that
everyone is assured of the
expectation of a welcoming
conference! I am sure that other
past conference chairs on this
list can speak up to their
experiences as well.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I hope all is going
well with planning for the
event!</div>

<div dir="ltr"
class="">Dear
Conference
Committee,
<div class=""><br
class="">
</div>
<div class="">It
has recently
been brought
to my
attention by a
member of our
community that
she noticed
the absence of
a Code of
Conduct for
the upcoming
Seoul FOSS4G.
I took this as
a huge sign
that the work
that has been
done by LOCs
in recent
FOSS4G,
regional OSGeo
events, and
other
technology and
geography
events towards
encouraging
diversity and
a welcoming
atmosphere to
all is indeed
being noticed.
I have also
been excited
to see based
simply on the
measure of
gender
diversity that
the numbers of
female
speakers has
been steadily
moving up over
the past
couple years.</div>
<div class=""><br
class="">
</div>
<div class="">I
would like to
encourage the
Conference
Committee (and
I am
volunteering
to do much of
the leg work)
to provide
guidelines for
implementing a
Code of
Conduct at
events for all
FOSS4G/OSGeo
related events
and to include
diversity
initiatives as
part of future
calls for
proposals for
the
international
event.</div>
<div class=""><br
class="">
</div>
<div class="">While
I believe it
is too late
for the
conference
committee to
make any
mandates to
the Seoul
team, is there
anyone who
knows the
folks on the
LOC that would
be willing to
help me reach
out to explain
the importance
of these
initiatives?</div>
<div class=""><br
class="">
</div>
<div class="">Thanks!</div>
