I was one of the candidates nominated to expand the FSF's board.

I didn't make it past the first round.

The only thing the board asked me about related to my signing of rms-open-letter.github.io/appe

@joeyh oh, the FSF is still a thing? I remember the night the FSF decided to withdraw from serious public debate / commit seppuku / elect sudden surprise respectectomy.

Yeah, smooth move, showing everyone your opponents are right, and you should avoid those licenses like the plague.

@aes @joeyh Yeah. I have FSF bucketed in my brain as "that org that used to be relevant and did good work back in the day, but missed the pivot from 'software as technical practice' to 'software as community undertaking' and they became irrelevant in the era of SaaS and GutHub."
