Conventions and SFWA's anti-harassment policy

It's posted as a resource and a policy that several SFWA folks have adopted, though. Reading that page, I see nothing there that even hints at "this is an official SFWA policy and SFWA members should adhere to it." It's much more of a "hey, if you're looking for a policy, some of our former and present officers have chosen this one."

While I personally agree with the policy, I have received no directive from On High regarding it...at all. I take that to mean that from the company's perspective, I am free to adhere to it (or ignore it) as I see fit. Of course, with me working from off-site, my lack of direction may not reflect what the guys at HQ are told...so please don't take this as anything more than what I've said.
