Hi Arowa, thank you very much for your work on this issue! I am aware that this is an uphill battle as it disrupts routine without being technically necessary. Many of us will go through episodes where we get annoyed with our own habits and constantly want to apologize when we accidentally use terms with oppressive heritage (and I must admit this still happens to me quite often, it takes more than 'sed' to make these changes in our brains as well). To make the computing world a better place, at least for future generations, I sincerely hope efforts like this succeed. If you have scripts to easily detect suppressive language in a code repository and suggest meaningful replacements, like the ones in this patch series, I would be happy if you could share them with me so that I can suggest similar changes for openwrt.git. Pre-built 'sed' scripts (and perhaps 'coccinelle'[1] patches when we work on code) would of course be great for this purpose, as it would reduce the risk of breaking something (and also make it easier and guarantee consistency) With kind regards Daniel [1]: https://coccinelle.gitlabpages.inria.fr/ On Tue, Jun 22, 2021 at 02:29:01PM -0700, Arowa Suliman wrote: > As part of using inclusive language in code, submitting the following > patches to replace some of the instances of oppressive words with > inclusive terms. > In-Reply-To: > > > > _______________________________________________ > Hostap mailing list > Hostap@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/hostap _______________________________________________ Hostap mailing list Hostap@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/hostap
