_This_ change doesn't depend on changing anyone's typing habits at all; no one has to type anything except me in making the PR and the releng package owner in accepting that PR. And on the overall effort... I know people who (still) call Microsoft Word "Microsoft". We don't need to reach 100% compliance (or any other metric) to be an improvement. (I do ask people to consider it in official communications, though, and I don't think it's too onerous of a request there either, as we are already careful about wording and brand usage in such communications.) -- Matthew Miller <mat...@fedoraproject.org> Fedora Project Leader _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
