So I had: A: Choice 1: Ban LLM contributions from Debian via Social Contract B: Choice 2: Allow AI-Assisted Contributions C: Choice 3: Reject LLMs as far as practical, update Code of Conduct D: Choice 4: Accept AI contributions for Debian specific work E: Choice 5: Responsible Use of Generative AI F: Choice 6: A cautious approach to generative AI G: Choice 7: Debian is created by humans H: Choice 8: Avoid the use of LLM; climate destruction is a deal breaker That is, for optoins B, D, E, F and G I have used the text of the proposer. A didn't have a title, I've used the subject, added "via Social Contract". For C I've removed the "(generative "AI")", added "update Code of Conduct" Option H was really long, so I made something shorter. But the difference between B and D isn't really clear from that.
