Sorry I hit the reply button too early. True we probably have a few community members who happen to have @mozilla.com email address, most likely because it was easier to manage the LDAP permission that way (not sure if we do allow non @mozilla.com to be in the LDAP primary account name). I am just a bit old school that I like telling someone's identity from an email address. In a way I probably can assume people using chromium.org are either core chromium developer or Google employee who prefer to be using chromium outside of work. While Google is not a non-profit organization, the same way that Python Foundation does not really have a business entity for handling business contracts either. It may not be all that important. Right now we redirect public facing mozilla.com to mozilla.org. Some of the internal facing are split between mozilla.org and mozilla.com. Anyway, I don't want to dilute the discussion. While I truly believe and value community member;s effort (being a community member right now I am), I am just a bit old school and if either won't work I am just happy with something like @mozillians.org :) _______________________________________________ governance mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/governance
