(attachment 0002-Add-punctuation-and-fix-some-pronouns.patch) The text applying both patches is attached as well (attachment debian-contributors.txt). Everything has been pushed to [2]. I believe (b) falls for sure under §A.1.6. I believe that also (a) falls under §A.1.6, but it's your call. *If* you disagree with that interpretation, I hereby formally introduce it as an amendment and, as the GR proposer, I hereby also accept it. I believe the text has the same intentions as the orignal, but that it does alter the meaning. Which means I'm resetting the discussion period. It would be nice that people could confirm that they have no problem with this changed text so that there is no doubt that this text has enough seconds.
