Will Donglegate Affect Your Decision To Attend PyCon?

theodp writes "Its Code of Conduct describes PyCon as 'a welcoming, friendly event for all.' But will the post-conference fallout from this year's 'Donglegate' debacle and proposed remedies affect your decision — one way or the other — to attend next year's PyCon in ironically naughty Montreal? And even if not, could 'Donglegate' influence the-powers-that-be whose approval you'll need to attend? How about conference sponsors?"

    Then rather than being too self-absorbed with with your own attendance/non-attendance, you should be more concerned about the numbers and quality of developers that are being [scared off/pissed off] from attending through fear of being made into the next internet monster by politically correct "behavior normalization" nazis.
