One thing im kind of curious about: Were any of these cases appealed? If so how many and what is the "success" rate of the appeals process?

Hello, The committee received several reports for cases that were out of our jurisdiction (usually due to mediawiki.org links followed from wikis that are not part of Wikimedia). Those are not included in the following numbers:
In total, the committee dealt with and decided on 17 cases. Nine of the cases had originated or had links to comments on Wikimedia Phabricator. The most frequent action taken there by the committee for these was to delete comments that violate the CoC. An email was also sent in all cases to the person engaging in those rhetorics.
Among the rest, two of the cases had events happening on Wikimedia Gerrit, four on the wikitech-l mailing list, and two had links to the userspace and talk pages on mediawiki.org.
Given the low number of offline cases, we won't disclose any details about those in order to protect confidentiality of those.
We saw at least 3 occasions of repeat violations from offenders. A harsher decision was taken in at least one case among these.
The committee came to a conclusion of no-further action at least 5 times while processing the aforementioned cases. However, we ended up at least sending an email to notify both parties involved in the report in all cases.
Actions taken varied from deleting comments, asking for apologies, and user bans. The committee also made sure to redirect reporters with genuine cases of harassment to law enforcement.
Due to the limited number of cases, we decided to not go into more detail where the cases were reported and what actions were taken and how often.
The current committee wishes the next committee a successful term!
