I further support changes like this. We should be an inclusive community
and that means civil behaviour which avoids name calling.
That doesn't mean we should sterilize everything and remove all flavour from
our conversations and commits, but indirectly putting down users that use
Windows or Mac OSX is not nice.
Similarly I don't enjoy bad language in commit messages. The sources
should be clean enough for even young developers to read.
Likewise full sentences and proper grammar :-)
Cheers,
Carlos.
