Hi,<br>
<br>
On slides 5 in the speaker notes (which I assume will be published?) it<br>
says:<br>
<br>
""Trusted contacts will emotionally support you, but absolutely can not<br>
take any other action. Effectively, our CoC creates a false sense of<br>
security. So our community’s current status is: if you get severely<br>
harassed at the party, which is a thing that happens, we can say how<br>
sorry we are for you, and tomorrow and next year your assailant will be<br>
sitting next to you. There is a CoC, but there is no accountability or<br>
consequences.”"<br>
<br>
This is not true and as I pointed out earlier on this list the Trusted<br>
contacts (and the RIPE Chair) have taken action in the past. I agree<br>
that the responsibilities of the Trusted Contacts may not be well<br>
understood or documented, but stating it like in the text above is wrong.<br>
<br>
