After the 2009 spate of sexualized presentations, the senior organizers sent an email containing the following to all 2009 Ohio LinuxFest speakers: I hate to have to bring this up, but in the past couple of years there’s been a surge of talks at various conferences – including OLF – that are have contained inappropriate content. Please remember that Ohio LinuxFest aims to be a family-friendly and professional event. Anyone who cannot meet this basic standard will be escorted from the stage immediately and then bbqed and served at the DIOS workshop the next day. Additionally, the Ohio LinuxFest has a Conduct Policy, of which a small sample version appears in the conference program. Discrimination and harassment are not tolerated for any reason, human or computer related.
