That may be true for some replies, but it's not true for the discussion 
itself. KDE considers taking part in FOSDEM as an organization. FOSDEM as a 
conference has different standards that what KDE considers, collectively, as 
good practice, the specific item we're talking about here is a Code of 
Conduct.

I agree that the discussion should be held level-headed instead of in 
headless-chicken-mode. I also think KDE has a better chance of actually 
achieving something than individuals.

In other words, it's well worth to think of this as an organization. And 
that's exactly what this thread should be about.

our community, in the wider sense, yes.

It's an issue at organizational level, it should be handled at organizational 
level, not at individual level. KDE is organizing its participation, not just 
individuals who want to attend.

Please keep the discussion level-headed and productive. While the topic might 
not be pleasant to discuss (or read its discussions), it's an important 
discussion to have, and this is the right place for it.
