#86: Consider anti-harrassment policy for FUDCon

To date, we've never had any safety, hostility, or harrassment problems at
a FUDCon. Nor do I believe this would change in the near future.
However, some community conferences have had this problem:
* http://valerieaurora.wordpress.com/2010/11/08/its-not-just-noirin/
* https://lwn.net/Articles/417952/
We've been asked whether we'd consider an anti-harrassment policy for
FUDCon. Some Fedora community members have been involved in the creation
of a generic policy that is available for adaptation and use:
* http://geekfeminism.wikia.com/index.php?title=Conference_anti-
harassment_policy
I believe all planners would agree we want attendees at a FUDCon to enjoy
their time there, and that we want them to feel safe to participate and
contribute there. However, there are some pending questions about what
risks and benefits the establishment of a policy creates. For instance,
does it increase liability for organizers, or Red Hat as a sponsor? I'd
think not, but since I'm not an expert, and don't believe any of us in the
planning group are, I've reached out to find a personnel policy expert in
Red Hat who could advise us.

I am a Fedora contributor ( ambassador, packager). I am also an
upstream contributor to the Transifex project. Currently I am working as
an intern at Indifex on the Transifex project. I have been working on
multiple things for Transifex : bug fixing, testing, some front-end stuff,
backend, api, etc.
I will be giving a talk on the Transifex project to make people aware
how Transifex is playing an important role in software localization and
internationalization, talk about features of Transifex and how to
contribute to Transifex.
I will also be giving a talk on Django testing and code coverage based
on the experience I gained working for Transifex.
Not just talks, I am also going to conduct a Hack Fest on Django
testing with Transifex. Transifex is a very successful open source Django
product. I think it will be great to have hands on experience on testing a
real world Django product. We will be writing new test cases, increase
code coverage and if possible find loopholes in the existing Transifex
code and fix them.
