Photo policy for DebConf



Hi!

it has been pointed out to me that there *is* a photo policy for DebConf
within the code of conduct. However, today I had to explicitly ask
somebody to refrain from taking pictures of me within a non recorded
BoF, namely the privacy BoF, and this person was being aggressive
towards me when being asked. Anti-harassment has discussed with the
person about that particular case, so I don't need to discuss this here.

However I would like to make it clearer at future DebConfs that this is
not okay. It seems like people don't read the code of conduct before
entering the conference. At IETF, because of a similar issue, a photo
policy was introduced which gives everybody the possibility to show
their willingness to be photographed by choosing a lanyard of a certain
color (https://www.ietf.org/blog/ietf-meeting-photography-policy/). I
would like to see a similar policy for Debian meetings. This will allow
attendees to opt in if they wish to do so.

You might want to contact people at IETF for more information and
positive response to that policy. If necessary, I can try to find a
contact person.

Cheers,
Ulrike
