Mathieu, the goal is to tell potential contributors about what we stand for, and to reassure members of underrepresented groups, such as women. One could think that this is unnecessary, or that it goes without saying. Unfortunately, experience has shown that this doesn’t go without saying.

I’m happy to discuss it face to face one of these days if you want! :-) Ludo’.
