Code of Conduct

In the interest of providing a truly open and welcoming event, the Plone Conference has adopted the official Plone Code of Conduct, which was created by the Plone Foundation in July 2012.

Anti-Harassment and Anti-Bullying Code of Conduct

The Plone Foundation is dedicated to providing a respectful, harassment-free community for everyone. We do not tolerate harassment or bullying of any community member in any form. This does not only extend to members of the Plone Foundation, but to anyone who chooses to become involved in the larger Plone community of users, developers and integrators through events or interactions.

Harassment includes offensive verbal/electronic comments related to personal characteristics or choices, sexual images or comments in public or online spaces, deliberate intimidation, bullying, stalking, following, harassing photography or recording, sustained disruption of talks, IRC chats, electronic meetings, physical meetings or other events, inappropriate physical contact, or unwelcome sexual attention. Participants asked to stop any harassing or bullying behavior are expected to comply immediately.

If a participant engages in harassing behavior, representatives of the community may take reasonable action they deem appropriate, including warning the offender, expulsion from any Plone event, or expulsion from mailing lists, IRC chats, discussion boards and other electronic communications channels to resolve the issue. This may include expulsion from Plone Foundation membership.

If you are being harassed, notice that someone else is being harassed, or have any other concerns, please act to intercede or ask for help from any member of the Plone Foundation, IRC chat admins, website admins, or organizers/representatives of any physical events put on under the auspices of the Plone Foundation.

If you believe you have been targeted by any of the behaviours or actions listed in the Plone Code of Conduct, please speak immediately to one of the Plone Conference Organisers.
