David,
Again sorry for cutting thread. I just get the digest.
>> I am especially disgusted by the people behind http://contributor-covenant.org. They have done nothing but to
silencethe voices of minorities. That's being kind to them.
> Interesting. Got a link for context? I Googled, but saw nothing about controversy or other issues in the first few
pages.Maybe I need to dig a little deeper?
Ruby is under heavy threat to adopt this, but they have not yet to my knowledge. Here is the thread:
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/12004
Reading the thread requires a lot of attention and also face recognition. So I shall point out the actors and
actressesin this conversation you should pay close attention to:
Coraline Ada - https://www.patreon.com/coraline?ty=h - Please give money to her cause, as it's way more important than
thepoor folk who work to make PostgreSQL better for free and never ask you for a dime
Kurtis Rainbolt-Greene - https://twitter.com/krainboltgreene/status/611569515315507200

Yes indeed he was very angered at Elia's (key Opal developer) saying gender reassignment is wrong for young children,
andspending like $50,000 on gender reassignment is being out of touch with reality. Like me saying smokers are killing
themselvesand spending money on 3 packs of cigrarettes a day could be better used.
Strand McCutchen - https://github.com/opal/opal/issues/942 (wow what a trooper, he's going to help Opal polish off the
ContributorConvenant so it's in a shape they can accept)
Ruby Creator - Yukihiro Matsumoto
And you must agree after seeing all the evidence that Yukihiro Matsumoto (who is not even a white guy) inventor of ruby
mustbe a jerk for not adopting this wonderful thing to make people feel welcome and respected. What awful person would
not. How about me?
Let's not forget about Meredith Patterson - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AI53yys3dbA&feature=youtu.be&t=538 What
hasshe done for open source?
Please ignore the two white guys in the talk, they are just white guys with white guy opinions.
Thanks,
Regina
