Events Code of Conduct and New Committee Ratification

[Nuritzi Sanchez]

Dear Foundation Members,

The GNOME Foundation Board of Directors would like to announce the
ratification of an Events Code of Conduct for GNOME events:
https://wiki.gnome.org/CodeOfConduct/Events.

This Event Code of Conduct is the product of over one year of work by the
Code of Conduct Working Group, as well as a round of feedback from GNOME
community members, and scrutiny by the GNOME Foundation Board.

The Board has also appointed a new Code of Conduct Committee (
https://wiki.gnome.org/CodeOfConductCommittee) to help with:

   - Ensuring that GNOME events follow the GNOME Foundation's events codes
   of conduct.

   - Responding to incident reports, in accordance with the incident
   response guidelines.

   - Keeping records of code of conduct issues, and tracking repeat
   incidents.


The Code of Conduct Committee can be reached at code-of-conduct-committee@
gnome.org.

The GNOME Foundation Board invites interested community members to
participate in the general Q session to be held at the 2018 Annual
General Meeting (AGM) at GUADEC if they have questions for the Board about
this new events Code of Conduct.

While this Code of Conduct for Events has been ratified, we look forward to
continue to improve it in order to help make GNOME events a safe and
welcoming place for our community.

On behalf of the Board,
Nuritzi

President, Board of Directors

Re: GUADEC 2018 Registration is now open!

[Ekaterina Gerasimova]

Hi all,

if you are planning to volunteer, it would be great if you could
register this week to help us order the right number of t-shirts in
the right sizes: http://registration.guadec.org

Even if you're not volunteering, it does help with planning if you
register early!

Re: Travel Sponsorship Delays and Next Steps

[Didier Roche]

Here are some update after yesterday's special emergency Board Meeting,

The good news is now that the new process is in place to be compliant 
with GDPR, processing the requests have been started.


To that goal, the board appointed Germán Poo-Caamaño to the Travel 
Committee who, has many of you know, is used to process those requests. 
In addition, some board members started themselves to process those 
requests for GUADEC.


We'll get Adelia Rahim and Michael Hall, new Travel Committee members, 
joining as well ASAP and get up to speed to give some hands.


Sorry for the delay, as between GDPR and some TC changes, we couldn't 
get this process started as soon as we wanted for GUADEC.


Cheers,
Didier
