I am not sure if this has been seen by everyone or not - but there is a change in how the .org top level domain is being ran in the works, in a way that may not be in the best interests of the non profits that it was created to facilitate. [1]

A lot of well known non profits have already joined, and as a community that has an interest in the internet as a whole, and uses a .org domain, I think we should add our voice in support.

What do people think? Are we happy to have the TC use its voice on behalf of the OpenStack project, or do we think the board should use its voice on behalf of the entire foundation?

It probably makes more sense (and has more weight) at the Foundation-level. -- Thierry Carrez _______________________________________________ Foundation mailing list Foundation@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/foundation _______________________________________________ Foundation-board mailing list Foundation-board@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/foundation-board The information contained in this email may be confidential and/or legally privileged.
