Hi All I am rather incensed by the twitter post (attached), in that it seems, once again that some opportunities are ONLY available to young people. To counter this, I was thinking, if we try and promote on social media that we need help with say Documentation, then we should make it clear the opportunity is available to all, but perhaps in a way that takes a subtle DIG at the above mentality. Something like - --- Would you like to get involved in developing future free software projects. Xubuntu is a GNU / Linux based operating system, the Developer teams are looking for Developers, Testers, Writers, Artists and Marketing expertise to help drive the project forward. We believe in ensuring equality and diversity in our teams, therefore these opportunities are open to ALL. please visit https://xubuntu.org/contribute/ for more information - ----- Does something like this sound appropriate, one of the things like about the free software communities is that we are diverse, anyone can contribute and feel valued for doing so. Thanks Paul Isn’t our openness and commitment to diversity already highlighted by Ubuntu Code of Conduct 2.0? See: https://ubuntu.com/community/code-of-conduct Stephen Michael Kellat
