-Over the last decade there has been a gradual adoption of Code-Of-Conduct statements at events and within organisations, including at FOSS4G events and within OSGeo projects. Adopting a good Code-Of-Conduct consolidates expectations about respectful behaviour at events and forums, ensuring they are safe, welcoming and productive and helps communities discretely address indiscretions should they occur.

 Building upon this initial momentum, the OSGeo Foundation has adopted a general Code-Of-Conduct to make it easy to apply to all OSGeo projects, and related events such as OSGeo.
 Jeff McKenna, president of the OSGeo Foundation, explains:
-: "At OSGeo, we aim to embrace to the diversity and strength of our OSGeo community, and this Code-Of-Conduct expresses our values and how we as a community like to treat each other. We encourage all OSGeo projects and FOSS4G events to reference this Code-Of-Conduct from their websites."
+: "OSGeo community members must be able to safely interact, contribute, share, learn, and be respected for who they are.  OSGeo strives to foster growth and innovation in the geospatial industry, and diversity must be respected to reach this goal.  Thank you to everyone involved in creating this Code-Of-Conduct for the OSGeo foundation, and let us all continue to promote Open Source geospatial safely and fairly."
