Actually, I agree that most of W. Martin Borgert's list of criteria (“race, ethnic origin, disability, age, gender, sexual orientation or religion”) are objectionable for job offers using Debian's resources. I do not, though, think that expecting the word “discrimination” to be understood as covering those criteria, and no others, is sensible or rational, nor does it promote understanding of the issue. If we want specific criteria to be not permitted, let's discriminate which criteria we mean, and stop trying to discriminate against the act of discrimination. -- \ “Whenever you read a good book, it's like the author is right | `\ there, in the room talking to you, which is why I don't like to | _o__) read good books.” —Jack Handey | Ben Finney -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
