Hi Richard;

I wouldn't be opposed to have a mastodon.gnome.org instance for GNOME
foundation members, but I'm not entirely sure about the security/moderation
side of things: who's going to moderate the instance? We have people
moderating mailing lists and a some level of moderation on IRC, but we'd
need moderation for a new service like Mastodon. Do you have someone in
mind?

Ciao,
 Emmanuele.
