Hello, I can sympathize with the rejection of institutionalized political correctness that (I think) José’s message is about. After all, the GHM audience is small and should be able to address problems through discussion, without resorting to a lawyer-jargon policy.
Yet, as Neal very well explained, the free software movement should be about inclusion. When someone talks in public, they should seek to be welcoming to everyone in the audience. Inserting “explicit sexual language or imagery” or “comments related to gender, sexual orientation, disability” etc. in a technical talk may amuse some, and exclude others. I hope we can hear the talk about GNU Posh, something that I know is a technical topic anyway. Ludo’.
