Clarify what we mean by team members
Based on conversation with @sytses earlier today.
Merge request reports
Activity
238 238 1. If you have multiple points in a comment or email, please number them to make replies easier. 239 239 1. When you reference an issue, merge request, comment, commit, page, doc, etc. and you have the URL available please paste that in. 240 240 1. In URLs, always prefer hyphens to underscores. 241 1. The community include users, contributors, core team members, customers, people working for GitLab Inc., and friends of GitLab. If you want to refer to 'people not working for GitLab Inc.' just say that and don't use the word community. If you want to refer to people working for GitLab Inc. you can also use 'the GitLab Inc. team' but don't use the 'GitLab Inc. employees'. 242 1. All people working for GitLab the company are the [GitLab team](https://about.gitlab.com/team/), we also have the [Core team](https://about.gitlab.com/team/) that is part GitLab team, part volunteers. 241 1. The community include users, contributors, core team members, customers, people working for GitLab (whether as employees or contractors), and friends of GitLab. If you want to refer to 'people not working for GitLab' just say that and don't use the word community. If you want to refer to people working for GitLab you can also use 'the GitLab team' but don't use the 'GitLab employees'. I think the original is better.
Consider include a new item:
- Please always refer to GitLab Inc. people as team members, not employees.
