Barend,

Thank you, I am relieved that someone understood my intent which was to keep 
the Discuss list “on topic”

Suchith, 

I meant no disrespect to you. I applaud your commitment to social justice and 
inclusion but I don’t think OSGeo Discuss is the right forum for this (that is 
my opinion, others are welcome to disagree)
