they is gender-neutral? Leads to very bad-sounding, at least for my ear, things like - How have they contributed to Debian already? - What do they intend to do for Debian in the future? - How do they interact with others, such as users and other developers? which is asked in the advocate mail at the moment. Asking about one person with they, gna. I cant imagine that this could be right. :) -- bye Joerg Some NM: "Essential: Yes" -- useful for a message when you do apt-get remove bash
