O'Reilly: Sexual Harassment at Technical Conferences: A Big No-No

Responding to a considerable amount of pressure to adopt an anti-harassment policy for OSCON, Tim O'Reilly has posted a statement on inappropriate behavior at O'Reilly events. "While we're still trying to understand exactly what might have happened at Oscon or other O'Reilly conferences in the past, it's become clear that this is a real, long-standing issue in the technical community. And we do know this: we don't condone harassment or offensive behavior, at our conferences or anywhere. It's counter to our company values. More importantly, it's counter to our values as human beings."
