Note: in french, we say "discrimation positive", but in english, we
prefer "positive action".

If anyone is interested to talk about diversity, code of conduct and
things like that: please contact me in private.

These topics are difficult to discuss in a public space. At least, I'm
not comfortable today to talk about them in public. There are good
reasons why people don't talk about things like that in public.
