Hi Andreas,

thanks for spotting this.

While most Russian people and organisations have nothing to do with with the horrible ongoing conflict, RusBITech seems to be mostly engaged with the Russian military complex and we surely don't want to be associated with enablers of what is going on. Unfortunately this symbolic gesture won't help stopping the destruction and suffering but I agree with you that we should immediately suspend their membership pending further investigation in regards to their position.

Hi,

according to the TDF website
(https://www.documentfoundation.org/governance/advisory-board/) LLC
Rubitech-Astra is currently member of the TDF Advisoriy Board. I looked
onto this wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RusBITech. There


In my view TDF should reconsider the membership of Rubitech-Astra after
breach of international law by Russia and the attack against the Ukraine.

Regards,
Andreas
