But I digress. By having the rainbow logo up on Reddit and Telegram our intention is to show support for oppressed communities, individuals, and to promote inclusion within the community. We do welcome everyone no matter where you from, what is your religion, or what you identify as. There are guard rails in place to protect everyone from attacks. And yes the rainbow logo proved to be a great way of filtering out toxic individuals with a non-inclusive, disrespectful behavior early on, this is not a secret.
that is a "political" stance and should be completely outside any consideration for a linux distribution.
The above stance from Attila is not "political" It's perfectly consistent with our very long standing Guiding Principles of this Project "We value respect for other persons and their contributions, for other opinions and beliefs. We listen to arguments and address problems in a constructive and open way. We believe that a diverse community based on mutual respect is the base for a creative and productive environment enabling the project to be truly successful. We don't tolerate discrimination and aim at creating an environment where people feel accepted and safe from offence. " Disagreeing with Attila's stance places you on the wrong side of both the Guiding Principles and our Code of Conduct, which are very important pieces that make this Project an inviting place for a great many people. And without people making them, you wont have any Linux distributions, so it's the people who matter. -- Richard Brown Distributions Architect SUSE Software Solutions Germany GmbH, Frankenstraße 146, D-90461 Nuremberg, Germany (HRB 36809, AG Nürnberg) Managing Directors/Geschäftsführer: Ivo Totev, Andrew Myers, Andrew McDonald, Martje Boudien Moerman
