The reason the issue is important is that many of our potential
contributors have been driven away, and are now being driven away. This
hinders our tech development. Sorry, anywhere humans collectively do things
together is by definition "political".

Our discussion is all about furthering this project and the FOSS community
as a whole, so we can make good tech that suits the needs of all of us.
