Code of Conduct enforcement is documented here, https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Community_working_group/CoC_Enforcement
where ultimately enforcement (and possible sanction) is the responsibility of the fedora council (board).

I think that's the general CoC - there is a separate one that applies to confernces I think, isn't there? There was one in last year's Flock brochure and Amit said there was one in the FUDCon Pune materials too.
Amit, where did the FUDCon Pune planners get the CoC text? Was it the standard Fedora CoC text or something different?

Here is the CoC text that we used for FUDCon Pune -> https://pnemade.fedorapeople.org/fudcon-pune-coc.pdf

It was the standard, based on pointers we got from the fudcon-planning list.

Ah okay, in this context your question makes a lot more sense bc of this text:
"Attendees who are in violation of this policy may be subject to removal and banning from FUDCon (and future Fedora events)."
I would say though we should probably resort to banning only in really extreme situations, hope it doesn't ever actually happen, but if it needs to allow the council to determine the steps involved when it happens.

Right - so we how about we change this text in our standard CoC, then -- since we don't currently have a way of tracking CoC violations, as well as banning is undesirable.
A note mentioning violations can be reported to the council, for further action if necessary, should be enough then.
Thanks all who chimed in.

Would one of you please file a ticket with the Council to sort this out officially? I really think this should be a little less ad hoc.
I also don't like "threats" which is how I read a "ban from all future events" which I consider a "threat" if it is not enforceable. As in, if we believe that is the right answer to the situation (which I severely hope it never is) we should have a SOP (procedure) for it in place, which changes it from a "threat" to just the way things operate.
