Here are some final reminders to ensure you have the best time at the event:
Code of Conduct
WordCamps are nonprofit events, organized by volunteers with financial transparency. All speakers and panelists volunteer their time and labor, and pay their own travel and accommodation costs. This is a community event, and we ask you to strongly adhere the WordCamp Code of Conduct. Basically this means to be kind, inclusive and understanding of others, and follow the GPL!
