A comment on Bullshit I had to go through while organizing a software conference. Parent comment
There wouldn't be much of a collaboration if people bail or a bad incident happens at the conference.
The fact that multiple people went out of their way to warn the conference organisers suggests this goes well beyond a normal difference of opinion.
In that context it was a difficult but correct call in my opinion.
Plus frankly if staying away from such people is uncivilized, then I'm ok with being uncivilized.
