I think a good place to start would be an official anti-harassment policy and a process for people to report issues to the event organizers who can then deal with the issue appropriately. I am happy to help with the drafting of both the policy and the process. What do folks think?<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><span><font color="#888888"><br>
