Hi Shruti,
In these always darker ages, it looks like operating systems may have to
comply to laws we may not like. I have in mind the age verification
stuff, but not only, some more unexpected things may pop.
If we become a Foundation, this automatically means registered USA, no?
In France, we'd call it an "association", and Foundation feels like USA.
Is this your plan?
If we become a registered entity, it'd be a way more easy for
governments to get us accounted for. Even more in the case of a
USA-registered Foundation. While with the current case, it'd be a way
harder for Debian to get into trouble. For example, the foundation could
be sued, and we'd have to pay for such trial in USA. But with the
current state, one would have to go after single individuals.
How do you plan to deal with this?
Also, could you expand on "exploring the possibilities" from your
platform? What does this mean?
To be clear: I'm for keeping things as they are now for the reason
mentioned above.
Cheers,
Thomas Goirand (zigo)
