The Code of Conduct seems to have a lot of teeth expressly covers who can help and sanction, and includes many levels of escalation.  Though much of it is oriented to a conference setting, I think it would be a good base to reinforce.  Maybe some words about it and a link to the policy?

We do have a Code of Conduct: https://github.com/code4lib/antiharassment-policy/blob/master/code_of_conduct.md


So possibly something that reinforces that would be useful.

I'm very much a reader/lurker on this list, so I don't know much about the bigger structures.

I'm very much in favor of a statement along these lines.

My question is about the teeth to it. When we look to who it will come from, do they have the ability to kick offenders off the list, or some other mechanism of response? Action seems to be needed now, and so in addition to a statement, I'd like to see behavior contrary to the statement having visible consequences. I think that'd add significance to whatever statement appears.
