I agree that this should go out. Just, we have "our community" twice in the 
text. <pun>Any linguistic expertise with us we could possibly welcome?</pun> 
Anyway, it sounds strange enough to me to suggest substituting the first 
occurrence with just "us". And, since we also want new contributors to also 
interact constructively between themselves, and since to me it is somewhat 
redundant in the first place, I would even feel inclined to remove the "with 
our community". Second paragraph untouched.
