It's an open project in a free society, so hardly anyone "must" do anything. As we're not all native English speakers, such generalizing, passive wording might lead to misinterpretations, too. I'd prefer and therefore suggest active wording like "I'd vote for", or "I suggest". ;-)
There are people in this world who are not native English speakers? How gauche!

p.s. - that's "gauche" in its English language meaning, not its French language meaning nor its Germanic roots meaning nor... ;-)
