Conduct

CppCon follows the CppCon Code of Conduct, cloned with thanks from the PyCon CoC. The conference is run by the Standard C++ Foundation in accordance with the Foundation’s diversity and inclusion policy.

Onsite resources and locale details during the conference are shared onsite during the conference. A digital copy of these resources can also be found here.

For any questions or concerns at a conference, please contact the Ombudsperson and CoC chair directly at their on-site office, by telephone, or by email to conduct@cppcon.org. You can also look for a conference volunteer wearing a volunteer (aqua) shirt who can help you contact them.

The Pac-Man Rule
We encourage attendees to learn and follow Eric Holscher’s Pac-Man Rule:

When standing as a group of people, always leave room for 1 person to join your group.
