Hello coworkers. 

I love the initiative, but I think that gangplank manifesto makes more sense 
for american people. Some things seems strange for me. 

I told about Small Acts Manifesto before and I think it's more neutral than the 
first one. Link: http://smallactsmanifesto.org/

Count on me to help you. ;)

Regards,
