"For example, the international State of the Map conference (in
Birmingham, UK, from Sept 6-8) is in its final planning stages, and
there has been some push-back against instituting a formal
anti-harrasment policy at the conference. The diversity-talk mailing
list will be an important site to organize in support of initiatives
like these." [1]

Alan, it seems that there is an anti-harassment statement on the State
of the Map web site. [2]  What was the nature of the push-back you
mention?
