If people read this as referring to non-English speakers, I hope that would only be due to the communication in question happens to occur in English...

Anyways, I'm also not particularly fussed about this. If folks feel really strongly about this, I'm open to suggestions. Sadly, I don't quite think the previous suggestion captures it, and I would like to avoid trying to define one language or another as a "lingua-franca".

My response to Zach was that this isn't actually about behavior outside the community spaces, but rather about behavior towards newcomers or external parties made within the LLVM spaces. So I don't think this is an "anti-dodging" anything... Not sure if that really addresses your concern though.
