Re: Statement of support for the SFC's campaign

Thanks for continuing the work on this!
Looking at the evolution of the draft, I see that there was this
opening sentence that was removed:
> The GNOME community dedicated the last 18 years to building a
> cohesive desktop experience for our users. We have created a library
> of work that is found not only in our desktop but also in various
> other important software and hardware.
It seemed okay/nice-to-have, so I'm just curious to hear the reasoning
for removing it?___

To shorten the story, based on a feedback/call to do so. Its basically
a open question whether the initial sentence should be included or
not.

GNOME | Engaging the Engagement Team!

[Nuritzi Sanchez]

Hi Everyone!

Which engagement team projects are you most excited about this year? If
you're not sure, we can help!

In order to help us all better collaborate, we are creating a comprehensive
directory so that we know what our members are interested in, and who we
can contact when we need help. This could be a great way to learn new
skills, and/or reconnect to GNOME! ;)

*The Engagement team is known for many cool projects, including: *

Event planning
External outreach

- Websites

- Press releases

- Marketing materials

- Presence at external events

- Social Media

Internal communications
Annual report
... and so much more! ;)


If you'd like to learn more about what the Engagement team does, please
check out our team page: https://wiki.gnome.org/Engagement.

We are always adding new things, so if you're passionate about something
and are wondering if it fits within the purview of the engagement team,
please put it down in the "notes" section when you add your info, and let
us know!

We are compiling the directory in a temporary location until we can migrate
it to a secure shared location.

*For now, please add **the** information** you feel comfortable sharing*
* to: **https://etherpad.gnome.org/p/Engagement_Directory*
*.*

If you do not feel comfortable adding any information to the Etherpad, but
still want to participate, you can send an email to Rosanna (z...@gnome.org)
or Nuritzi (nurit...@gmail.com).

Thank you, and we look forward to collaborating and making 2016 absolutely
awesome!

Best,
SF Engagement Team (yep, we exist)



*Here's a sample of the info we are hoping to compile in the directory: *


*Name: *
*IRC Nick: *
*Email: *
*Time Zone: *
*Areas of Interest: *
*Areas of Experience: *
*Availability: *
*Notes: *

I agree with that, it gave a bit of context and I think we should keep it.
