[FOSDEM] It's time for a Code of Conduct

[Christophe Vandeplas]

It's funny how some subjects become a repeatable story a few months
before FOSDEM  .

I've spend many years into organising FOSDEM, and I must say that
during this time, I've have learned very interesting things about
human behavior.

In the end from what I learned, (but then again I'm not organiser
anymore), the best thing will probably be to print the whole Belgian
legislation into the FOSDEM Brochure.  Fortunately we can exclude the
European one, as all EU laws need to be transcribed into local law as
I understood.

This Code is definitely more complete than an ad-hoc Code of Conduct
written by geeks that are far away from the reality and don't have the
experience.


Kind regards
Christophe

PS: if the irony is unclear: Let's also publish a FOSDEM driving-rules
for the conference ground. I guess that this will definitely clear
things out in addition to the Belgian driving rules....
