you saw the Booth wiki[6], he signed up and manned the booth pretty much

thank yous to him. Alan you did great work and the community thanks
you!!!
I am very sorry and embarrassed to use such derogatory and sexist words.
It is unacceptable.

We must all be very careful with wording like "manning" something. It
is a sexist term, that should be replaced with "staffing" the booth, for
example.
I am usually very respectful, but this was a mistake. I thank someone
for pointing this out to me directly, and I hope my public mistake can
help the community learn from it. Everyone in the community must follow
a code of conduct, at all times.
