Hi Hanna and all, just want to repost the link to the statement [1
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/130JCTX9ve4H4ORXznmIVTpXiN3TX8nRGA8ayuTZ9ECI/edit?usp=sharing>]
as I think some points are being missed or misrepresented in this
discussion..

Firstly, there are specific action points at the bottom of the statement
(some better defined than others).

Also, the recommendation is for a code of conduct, not "more code of
conduct". i.e. there isn't one currently.

Lastly, I would love OpenStreetMap to be fun for everyone, but this
obviously isn't currently the case for many people in the community.

Pete
