What if you need more attention and want to be harassed? Amir: Also, SVN does kinda suck :P
Seriously though, this looks great. I've been fortunate enough to not have been harassed at a conference much more than being trolled on occasion, but I think that's a more borderline case that doesn't quite warrant any serious actions. That said, I think there's an excuse game that gets played a lot. When I've expressed concern in the past I've often been told things like like "yeah, but they are a really good contributor, that's just how they are, deal with it" or "they're [enter country of origin here], that's just how they are, deal with it". This lays some ground rules that are fair in any venue around the world. Thanks for putting this together. - Trevor On Thu, Jan 12, 2012 at 8:35 AM, Amir E.
