Hi Javier,
Neither the link [1] in the mail list header or the wiki actually work.
[1] http://2013.pycon-au.org/register/code_of_conduct
If you Google "pycon code of conduct" you get multiple versions from
around the world. The most appropriate is probably what can be found on
the PyCon GitHub page [2]
[2]
https://github.com/python/pycon-code-of-conduct/blob/master/code_of_conduct.md
That said I notice that PyCon has a new subdomain for this year's
conference and the following URL resolves [3]
[3] http://2015.pycon-au.org/register/code_of_conduct
Interestingly, or just to confuse matters, the dialogue on this page
does not match any of the text referenced above.
In addition, if you go to the Linux Australia page and drill down to the
code of conduct [4] it reads completely different to what is found on
any of the fore-mentioned pages.

https://github.com/linuxaustralia/constitution_and_policies/blob/master/code_of_conduct.md
As a interested observer, I am surprised that after what seems like
months of debate someone has not forked one of the PyCon Templates on
GitHub and modified it to the Melbourne PUG needs.
Cheers Simon

Ok, so I finally put some language about a Code of Conduct in the

As to the script for the opening spiel, I'll let that in the TODO
chapter for now.

Hi,
Thanks Javier, I think this is a great initiative.
I think two things would be useful: being specific about who are the
points of contact. Perhaps this could be part of the intro spiel.
Ideally they would be mentioned by name and be standing at the front
of the room to be visible.
Second is having a clear idea about what action those people might
take, when a report is made. The Geek Feminism wiki has a ton of
information on Code of Conducts and a page all about responding to
reports:
http://geekfeminism.wikia.com/wiki/Conference_anti-harassment/Responding_to_reports
I suggest this as a starting point, not that everything here should
be adopted wholesale for MPUG. I think it is important that the
organisers "own" the policy in that they have been deliberate in
their thinking and this is actively how they want to approach it.
Another thing that is cool is encouraging bystanders to speak up if
they hear/see something inappropriate. I went to a talk by Karen
Sandler earlier this year and she had the whole audience practice
saying "Dude, that's not cool". It is pretty cheesy but it's not a
bad ice-breaker, and I actually heard someone at a later talk say it
- so it works! I think this is really great because a lot of small
things may not constitute harassment but nonetheless can make you
feel unwelcome. Having someone else speak up like that feels
amazing. And also, it shows that you don't have to perfectly
articulate exactly why something was inappropriate, or berate
someone for what may be an innocent or just thoughtless mistake.
cheers,
Brianna

Hi Huw,
It is probably because the link you clicked on in this email
is part of the Wiki wording, and the sending email client has
include the pipe character in the URL it detected.
If you strip out the wiki markdown formatting, you will get
http://2013.pycon-au.org/register/code_of_conduct , which
should link you to the article.
Thanks to all who pointed this out. Now that I can see it, I
very much agree with it.
