If we are really trying to encourage the broadest participation, then demanding that all participants agree to some particular set of values conflicts with that.
Naturally, some sets of values work better with our goals than others. But I'd rather focus on the goals, where I think we have some hope of agreement.
The issue here is not "values" but "ethics". Can we please stop confusing the two?
You are welcome to replace one for the other in my comment above if that will help you along. Regardless, my point stands: we'll be more effecting focusing on shared practical goals then achieving mental conformity.
