The GNU Kind Communication Guidelines don't mandate gender-neutral speak in documentation. The GNU Kind Communication Guidelines are about communication between people, not about documentation. Therefore there is no need for gender-neutral speak in the GNU gettext documentation.
It’s not a *requirement*, but using gender-neutral pronouns is surely more *inclusive* than using gender-specific pronouns. And being inclusive to the users is a good thing, isn’t it?
So, IMHO, this patch in an improvement to the documentation. -- Karl Ove Hufthammer
