Sorry, something went wrong with my original reply.  I originally wrote that 
the individual items are easy enough to find but to the best of my knowledge no 
one has combined them in a kit.  The closest I can think of are the books and 
paper sold as a boxed set like the ones sold in bookstores.  For example I 
recently received Won Park's "Extreme Origami" as a gift.  It comes with fake 
paper money.  Tom Sullivan


[Origami] CoC - Might a video conference be useful?

2021-05-21 Thread Anna
Hello,

With all the discussion about the CoC, I wondered whether it would maybe
help if all interested parties joined a video discussion, like a Zoom
meeting or something along those lines. It might be easier getting to an
agreement if you hear and see each other. I see how writing down your
thoughts on the matter cools things down a bit, on the other hand I guess
that some misunderstandings could be easier eliminated in a real discussion.

Best regards
Anna

Hi all,

Just a side note, but it may factor in here.

For all its worth, one of the elements that convention organizers should/need 
to check is whether or not the facility they are renting requires a COC and the 
documentation of incidents.   It is part facilities minimizing their liability, 
and its not uncommon.
