[diversity-talk] OSM code of conduct: starting points

[alyssa wright]

Hi all,

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.

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.

Best,
Alyssa.
