Clarify "We accept anyone's contributions."

The NCoC states "We accept anyone's contributions.".

I would suggest "We accept anyone's contributions based on its merits" or similar. Promising to accept every contribution will not work and will quite probably not be a true statement for most projects.

That was exactly my first thought, too. I like the NCoC, but I'll use a wording like:

We accept everyones contributions, as long they meet our technical standarts & project requirements. We don't care if you're liberal or conservative, ...

just say "without regard for identity"
