Well said. This expresses a large and important part of my own viewpoint
on this.
Even if you change nothing about the software itself, think about how
you present yourselves, people! Saying something different, or even only
saying the same thing differently, can make a very large difference in
how people perceive and react to you - and to what you're advocating.
I don't post often, but when I do, I often go well out of my way and
take considerable trouble to try to get this right. (Though I also often
fail in the attempt.)
