So DockerCon Europe what does this have to do with anything?
I don't particularly identify as any of these groups.
I do identify as a geeky person who is interested in fun technology, though. That seems much more relevant to me.

@borup It says above why they are asking, doesn't it? To get a feeling for how their community is composed.

@rixx I don't see how putting people in little boxes, thus focusing on our differences, will help anybody being included.

Maybe I should check "Indigenous" I am after all...

The complete failure to translate the form into something that would make sense in Europe, makes it feel as though its American sjw's shouting "white guys check your privilege!"

@borup Wow, you really want to see this negatively, don't you?

@rixx I just really want to understand. Creating an inclusive environment is too important to do it badly.
This way is either trying too hard or rather not trying hard enough.

@borup Your confrontative and unconstructive way of arguing does not help in making clear that you care at all. And in a world where there are lots of loud people very much against inclusive environments, you'll get counted among them if you argue like that.
