@klumb @spotz I know it's been a while since you did a review so if you have any questions let me know! We were looking for a fresh perspective and someone not involved with the planning of this, since it's a CHAOSS event. Thank you!

[spotz]

@Ruth-ikegah is there anyway to add the information about the Diversity Tickets and Family Friendliness to the site? For these they're being required to join Slack to contact you in order to learn more about the tickets and family accomidations and to ask for a Diversity ticket but that might be a barrier for some.

[Ruth-ikegah]

Hi @spotz thank you for pointing it out. Let me update the information. We did have a public form link.

[ElizabethN]

Just to follow up with this we did add this information to the CHAOSScon Africa website. Thanks for bringing that up, @spotz!

[spotz]

Thanks for the updates, my review is complete

[klumb]

@Ruth-ikegah is there an onsite contact person for code of conduct violations? Is your event monitoring the email address that is listed?

@klumb thanks for spotting that! I'd add my email as an on site contact asap

[klumb]

Thanks, @Ruth-ikegah

@ElizabethN , My review is complete.
