<div dir="ltr">Hi Vedran,<div><br></div><div>Partly agree. There are a couple of recent purely political quotes that should probably go; I have no particular interest in staying 'neutral', but I think it's a reasonable requirement that there should be a direct connection to science/engineering/programming - otherwise we might soon end up with a torrent of quotes that are completely unrelated to what we do, and that would be a shame.</div><div><br></div><div>On the other hand, I don't want us to be too touchy either, but in particular when it comes to contentious topics it's probably a good idea to consider adding a couple of jokes from both points-of-view rather than pushing your own ideas. Personally I think it would be pretty fun to have a couple of pro-religion jokes about science, but I haven't been very good at finding them :-)</div><div><br></div><div>Cheers,</div><div><br></div><div>Erik</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Cheers,</div><div><br></div><div>Erik</div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Dec 7, 2016 at 12:37 PM, Vedran Miletić <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:vedran@miletic.net" target="_blank">vedran@miletic.net</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Hello,<br>

I say the following in a very calm voice, just as a suggestion, since I<br>
expect it to be a charged topic.<br>
<br>
Could we in the future avoid including ideologically biased quotes<br>
promoting either side of whatever is the current (or eternal) debate in<br>
society? I would much prefer if GROMACS was neutral on all issues<br>
unrelated to science and software development.<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance.<br>
