<h2>Policy</h2>
<p>Before committing to the fortune file, please remember the
classic Usenet "rule":</p>
<p>"Be conservative in what you expect others to accept and liberal
in what you are prepared to accept."</p>
<p>If an entry offends more than a couple of FreeBSD committers and
does not contain any reasonable historical reference, the entry should
be in the offensive file. The speaker of the quote is not to be the
basis for categorizing the quote as offensive.</p>
<p>Examples of offensive entries:</p>
<ul>
<li>Those that belittle groups on the basis of their gender,
nationality, religion, or lifestyle.</li>
<li>Profanity, "adult" content.</li>
</ul>
<p>If you add new material to the fortunes collection, please be
extra-diligent about unforeseen objections, and give plenty of
time for it to settle before MFCing.</p>
<p>Additional examples may be added to the offensive list above, as
guidelines, whenever core@ is required to settle a dispute on this
issue.</p>
