As for the "politics":
"It doesn't matter which country you're coming from, your political
views, your race, your sex, your age, your food menu, whether you wear
boots or heels, whether you're furry or fairy, Conan or McKay, comic
character, a small furry creature from Alpha Centauri, or just a
boring
average person. Anybody who's interested in bringing X forward is
welcome."
There is no code of conduct, just the request to treat everyone
civilly.
There is also a call to distributions and operating systems that have
their own forks (like OpenBSD has) to collaborate.

Paragraph prior to your copied paragraph:
This is an independent project, not at all affiliated with
BigTech or any of their subsidiaries or tax evasion tools,
nor any political activists groups, state actors, etc. It's
explicitly free of any "DEI" or similar discriminatory
policies. Anybody who's treating others nicely is welcomed
How is this "bad"? Did you read past that watchword you trigger over
this much?
"Anybody who's treating others nicely is welcomed"
Sure, mentioning disdain for DEI might not be conducive, and there are
efforts underway to remove this wording, because it takes away the core
message of the project, which is that there are folks at Xlibre who
actually want to maintain X11 since FDO wants to let it rot and wither.
This project is active. They welcome everyone and everyone. Look at the
merit, not the puppets.
Cheers,
Emiel.
