Hi Joshua,
is there a policy about language useage? Althougth I'd expect that
Debian would disallow language that expresses discrimination against
anyone or group.  Would you advoate self-censorship? Or a more formal policy
?
This is related to the recent debate about the use of formal vs informal
language in some documents.
