If we want a body that can enforce certain rules, I would go to "social committee" (as its analogue "technical committee"). If we want a contact point that gives advice ans ensures that complains or a report arrives to the corresponding body (similar to now), my name suggestion would be"Anti-harassment and Fair Treatment Contact Office". I wouldn't drop the anti-harassment word because its negative load raises awareness and sends a clear message. I always understood harassment as not only sexual, but any (repeated) abuse in power relationships. If that's not the common understanding, we may need to add "anti-bullying". >But my critique to Ian's original point stands: As long as the people >involved in said "hard" social interactions post their messages to >debian-devel or debian-whatever, no conflict-prevention-body will ever >prevent that friction. +1 Or at least I would like that the conversation goes at a slower pace. To leave ourselves (all of us) time to think, calm down, listen and empathycise. My 2 cents. -- Laura Arjona Reina https://wiki.debian.org/LauraArjona Sent with K-9 mail
