Hello,
Were some of you at AdaCamp San Francisco, about two weeks ago?
Many discussions revolved around those issues.
Non-technical contributions are needed in the community, that's for
sure, and they should be recognized if it is not already the case.
That would be the rough consensual conclusi
Hi all
I don't know the Debian community very well either, but since I am
around here (let's say 3-4 years) I feel it welcoming, polite and
quite inclusive (the D-W subproject already had some years, the Debian
Diversity Statement was written and published, last months the OPW
proposals...).

Dear Miry,
My personal opinion is that for changing things, we have to be able to
acknowledge what's truly happening, and start moving from there. I

I have been unhappy with this since I first read it, and had held off saying
anything while I pondered.

Hej Sam
To add to the answer that Miriam has supplied, I would like to suggest
that if that sentence puzzled you, then you may be interested to read
/The Rise of the Meritocracy/ (1958) by Michael Young, which is the

Can you explain that part a bit more?
