- CA says that there are "...a (legal-approved) list of... event banned
users", "a protocol for appearance (or threat of it) at events by banned users" and that it will "Supply to Conference Coordinators for events beginning in Q1 (6/30)." Here at Cascadia Wikimedians, I didn't receive the list or the protocol. I'm not sure that we need the list, but having access to the protocol would be helpful, and I suggest that it be circulated among the leaders of affiliate organizations which have in-person meetings even if they are not "conferences", since we may want to use WMF's protocol as a basis for developing our own, keeping in mind that local laws may vary. This aligns with the general goal of having friendly spaces in Wikimedia, both physical and virtual.
Quite right - you haven't received it... because it was just finished before Wikimania. Give us a bit of time to breathe, please. :-) It will be circulated as necessary - meaning, we will likely not be providing the list of names, except to event organizers. I believe the current intent is to share the protocol with those who are interested, but I'm honestly not sure of this - while it was developed on my team, I honestly didn't have day to day involvement with it, so I need to refresh my memory. :-)
