The first paragraph of the short version was on a slide during the Opening Ceremony. The full text of the short version is also included on the registration page[1]. While assembling the welcome talk we also made sure that antiharassm...@debian.org actually goes to a useful destination. So it's not like DebConf does not have any measures against unsuitable behaviour. But it's true that we have no clear process for measures in case someone does not respect our Standards of Respect. I'm not sure if we need a formalized process though. While as far as I know the Standards of Respect were written for DC10 and are the result of mailinglist discussions on the debconf-team list, they don't look very formalized. Makeing them more formal might be a good thing. I personally quite like the current text of the "short version".
