Maybe a blog post stating that Guix does

of the project, without having the technical cost associated?
We already have a CoC for that and yet a person had called Guix a Nazi
organization in the social media because one of the maintainers blocked
him from his personal account.
Those who want to get offended will. Regardless of what we do.
I don't mean we don't have to be welcoming, but it's impossible to make
everybody happy, specially when some are looking for reasons to
complain. "If you are friends with everyone you are an enemy to yourself"?
I prefer to be welcoming in a more humane way. We can be welcoming even
if we use the word 'master' and we could be a very unwelcoming project
even if we used another word.
So yes, Tomas, we could do anything else, but that's not what people is
looking for here. They advocate for that very specific change, and it's
not clear to me if it would have anything but drawbacks.
Best,
