I have added "FederatedSocialWeb" as a project, which stands for the "W3C Federated Social Web Community Group". Some comments regarding youbroketheinternet.org: 1. "We are preparing a EU law proposal to require obfuscated and end-to-end encrypted communications in all telephony and computer appliances sold after 2014. The law shall include ways to ensure its correct implementation and a transition path from the existing unencrypted systems." I can guess who "we" is, and I do not support this. It is extremely likely that such a proposal will not lead to a positive result. If such a law is accepted it will contain legal requirements to implement backdoors in end-to-end encrypted communications for so-called "law enforcement" purposes. 2. "We like the Pirate Party, but we are not a project of the Pirate movement." I (and probably some of the projects on the map) do not like the Pirate Party. I can elaborate on that, but that probably would be off-topic. But let me just mention that I do not like _any_ party which has a chairperson defending the German secret services. 3. Some of the light red colors on the map regarding "faulty technologies that we shall replace" are not appropriate. I don't want to prevent other people from trying to replace "Web Browsers", for example. But sometimes it is better to improve existing technologies than to attempt to replace them. Cheers, Andreas
