We tested the code at our <a href=\"http:\/\/london16.journalists.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">ONA London 2016: Audience Engagement<\/a> event and received enthusiastic support from presenters and attendees alike. We hope it will be equally welcome this year in Denver.<\/p>\n<p>The code is adapted for the ONA community from open-source codes and policies, which we cite.
