[Osmf-talk] [OSM-talk] Call to Take Action and Confront Systemic Offensive Behavior in the OSM Community

[Hanna Krüger]

I am fully for improving discussion culture and better inclusivity, but causing a whole debate, because a person used a certain figure of speech is counterproductive, highly  divisive, and creates even more hate speech on mailing lists.

In regards to Frederik: He has done a wonderful job for many, many years, with a huge positive impact on all matters OSM. I really enjoy working with him in the German LC (FOSSGIS), he is one of the reasons why I joined it. In my experience he is always open, friendly and understanding and does not deserve to be put on the spot in such a fashion.

I do not believe this manifesto will make any difference: There are no actual actionable points in the document, besides having “more code of conduct“. If you have some specific ideas that could be realized, I am sure you can pitch them and they‘ll be discussed on their merits.

OpenStreetMap should be fun for everyone.
