inactive message was not said at vdd, but in a private mail later on.
inactive message is also unrelated to why i reported this person, since
it was said in private.

you're not close to figuring out why i specifically blame the
organizers.

where is asso@ documented? who is on the videolan code of conduct
enforcement team? what are the rules if one of the board members has a
complaint filed against them? do they get to decide their own complaint?

i made a valid complaint to the board/organizers of vdd to something
that happened at vdd. i quoted from the shared values and code of
conduct rules. and explained how the persons comments to me at vdd
broke said rules and shared values.

i sent my valid complaint to the organizers of vdd , as listed on the
vdd24 wiki. 
https://wiki.videolan.org/VDD24/ , which is the board at vo email.

i read the shared values page and code of conduct wiki, but neither of
them have any contact information on where to report a violation of the
code of conduct. if theres a videolan code of conduct email or
reporting information page , i cant find it.

https://wiki.videolan.org/Code_of_Conduct/
https://wiki.videolan.org/VideoLAN_Values/

ffmpeg code of conduct page has an actual contact email, with
responsive code of conduct members responding to complaints within a day
or two. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
