We’re voicing our strong, unequivocal support of appropriate behavior by all
participants at technical events, including Oscon and other O'Reilly
conferences. We invite you to help us make Oscon a place that is welcoming and
respectful to all participants, so everyone can focus on the conference itself,
and the great networking and community richness that can happen when we get
together in person.
It is SO good to hear this from a major presenter.
This is a major topic on Systers, and it is amazing that it still happens.
Apparently a presenter demostrated databases, using a database rating woman by hotness.
Now, please, if you can't present something to a group of high school (or better yet, middle school students), don't present it ever. It is't appropriate for any audience.
