The SF3 Board's An Apology

[james_davis_nicoll]

The SF3 Board extends heartfelt apologies to those who have been harassed at WisCon, to those who feel unsafe at WisCon, to the ConCom, and to our wider community, for letting you down. We regret allowing Rose Lemberg’s report to languish.

Do you really think it's more chaotic to kick someone out for sexual harassment and physical assault than to ignore the incidents because the perpetrator is a pro editor and long-time member of the community? The problem isn't that a group of more than 50 will contain at least one knucklehead; it's deciding that therefore you'll accept an unlimited number of knuckleheads rather than tell people to leave if they are harassing people at meetings of the group.
