Hey folks,

I apologize that my only other contribution to this discussion was a little
emotional. Harendra wrote something that really resonated with me
(positively)!

Moritz and Julian's shared statement is one I fully support.

I also support the draft policy. I agree that such a policy is needed. I
note (with satisfaction) that you could just as easily call it a general
"Contribution Policy", but that's neither here nor there. The main takeaway
is that GHC is a project designed for human eyeballs. I think we have 100%
agreement on that particular value?

The one thing I reacted to previously was P3: declaring use of LLMs. Now, I
realize it's literally the least I could do. Of course I will do it.
