 Ok I see. While I don't see anything particularly with the decision to
post the interview on the Engagement Blog I view the post mostly as an
interview. Would see it as good to (at least) including a link to the
*fundraiser.
 gnome.org have been used for spreading community pleas (don't view it as
wrong).


The post on the Engagement blog is a follow up to the campaign we ran in
December: https://twitter.com/gnome/status/940914200926355456. The article
on the Engagement blog includes a link to the fundraiser in two places, so
it's not just an interview.

For more context on the Engagement blog vs gnome.org article decision,
during Engagement calls, we talked about our broader fundraising strategy
and the fact that we don't want to detract donations from Friends of GNOME
in the future. We wanted to reserve gnome.org posts for things like Friends
of GNOME and other fudraisers that directly impact the Foundation. As a way
to still help people like pippin whose efforts are extremely important to
GNOME, we decided to do the interviews on the Engagement blog with links to
fundraising campaigns and also post about their campaigns using our
official GNOME social media accounts.

If you'd like to further discuss the strategy, feel free to add the agenda
item to our meeting etherpad and attend one of our Engagement meetings!
