I would like that. There is material in this thread (eg my own original posting) that could be cribbed from to make a suitable press release. I'm sure mjg59 wouldn't mind us stealing bits of what he's written: http://mjg59.dreamwidth.org/38992.html (although checking with him would be polite). How can we make this happen ? How can I help ? An alternative route would be for someone to propose a GR. But it seems like it would be foolish to ask everyone to vote on something when we have such a consensus. (FTR I won't pursue my suggestion that Debian should give Conservancy (more) money. I still think that would be a good idea, but I want to press forward with proposals that have a broad consensus.)
