Hi all, <div><br></div><div>Thanks for such an in-depth thread regarding a CoC. I'm a little late to the party due to a bike accident this fall that unfortunately left me with a brain injury (but good news is that I'm now part of the neurodivergent! ;) I wonder if this is such a large topic that it should be the focus of an in-person event, phone call, editathon, mappy hour? The emails seem ripe for conversation. </div><div><br></div><div>Either way, I'll try to move this forward. It seems like creating a safe and open OSM is a priority for all of us. </div><div><br></div><div>Best, </div><div>Alyssa. </div><div><br>On Thursday, October 16, 2014, Paul Norman <<a href="mailto:penorman@mac.com">penorman@mac.com</a>> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">On 10/11/2014 3:48 PM, Darrell Fuhriman wrote:<br>

Here’s my question, and this needs to be clarified (probably deserves its own thread):<br>
<br>
Who is responsible for deciding what action needs to be taken in the case of CoC violations?<br>
<br>
A CoC without a body willing and able to enforce it is just window dressing.<br>

This is, in practice, not a huge issue. Violations on mailing lists would fall under the responsibilities of the list moderators, and I think the CWG (or MT) is the working group ultimately responsible. Violations on the API (website) are a DWG responsibility, governed by the ban policy[1]. SOTM is under the responsibility of the SOTM WG, and I imagine they'd delegate responsibility to the event planners when it comes to the actual event.<br>
<br>
This is of course straying from the topic of diversity-talk@ a great deal, do in violation of what some have proposed for a Code of Conduct[2]. A more suitable venue for the entire CoC discussion would be the general talk list or other non-topic specific lists.<br>
