I would greatly support a reporting process for issues for our Summits. Thanks David for bringing it to the mailing list. I can help in any way needed.
One bit of input, I'm not sure wording as strong as "anti-harrassment policy" is required, though that's at the heart of it. We can probably follow in PyCon's footsteps with a Code of Conduct for conferences, [1] which refers to the Ada Initiative's wiki. [2] Also, as a gentle reminder (ha!) as members of the community, we do have a code of conduct in place already [3]. I'd like to ensure we carry some processes for ensuring we all are welcomed at Summits and have a safety net for reporting and correcting issues.
