The first resolution passed by the board serves as the Foundation’s
recommendation that all Python conferences and related events create
and apply a Code of Conduct. The board unanimously agreed on this

The second resolution passed by the board serves as the Foundation’s
requirement that all Python conferences and related events create and
apply a Code of Conduct. Without a code in place, the Foundation will
not fund the event.
