The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) has started an action to prevent the sale of the .org domain to a private equity firm. As owners of the sane-project.org domain, that sale will affect us. There is also a way for organizations to get listed as signatories of the EFF's letter. I would like to add the SANE Project to that list but would like to know how many of you give this idea a thumbs up and how many of you a thumbs down.
Feel free to comment but please click one of the thumbs up or down emoticons to express your vote. I'll take a tally on 2019-12-11, around 12:00UTC. In case of at least twice as many thumbs up as thumbs down (i.e. a 2/3 majority), I'll submit a request to list the SANE Project.
Seeing 13 thumbs up and 0 down, I've just dashed off the following
