            Hi everyone,<br>
            I heard back from Tony and Karen at the SFC and they see no<br>
            issues with<br>
            our position statement regarding North Carolina HB2.<br>
            Tony does not believe that our statement explicitly<br>
            implicates the State<br>
            Library or NC Cardinal.<br>
            He did ask for some clarification on the refund language<br>
            which is<br>
            incorporated below.<br>
            Please review and, if we're all in agreement, I'd like for<br>
            us to publish<br>
            this asap.<br>
            Thanks!<br>
            Grace<br>
<br>
            -----BEGIN-----<br>
            Per the Evergreen Project's Event Code of Conduct<br>
            <a href="https://evergreen-ils.org/code-of-conduct" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://evergreen-ils.org/code-of-conduct</a><br>
            Evergreen event organizers are dedicated to providing a<br>
            harassment-free<br>
            experience for everyone, regardless of gender, sexual<br>
            orientation,<br>
            disability, physical appearance, body size, race, or<br>
            religion. We do not<br>
            tolerate harassment of event participants in any form.  It<br>
            is now important<br>
            to reemphasize that commitment.<br>
<br>
            In particular, the Evergreen Oversight Board is disappointed<br>
            that the<br>
            North Carolina General Assembly has chosen to pass<br>
            legislation that<br>
            nullifies city ordinances that protect LGBT individuals from<br>
            discrimination, including one such ordinance passed by the<br>
            Raleigh City<br>
            Council. Since the 2016 Evergreen Conference is to be held<br>
            in Raleigh, the<br>
            Oversight Board is taking the following steps to protect<br>
            conference<br>
            attendees:<br>
<br>
            * We are working with the conference venue and hotels to<br>
            ensure that their<br>
            staff and organizations will not discriminate on the basis<br>
            of gender,<br>
            gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, physical<br>
            appearance, body<br>
            size, race, or religion.<br>
<br>
            * The Evergreen Project, via its fiscal agent Software Freedom<br>
            Conservancy, will refund in full registrations from<br>
            individuals who feel<br>
            that they can no longer safely attend the conference.  We're<br>
            committed to<br>
            processing refunds requested on this basis, but it will take<br>
            us some time<br>
            to process them.  Please be patient if you request a refund.<br>
