Dear all,
XSF Communication Team basically just intended to ask for permission
from Board. But they ask us to reach out to all of you. So here we go!
Currently there is a new initiative going on from Save Social – Networks
For Democracy. It's called the Digital Independence Day - Di.Day in
Germany. https://di.day/en (Sorry, no English version yet)
While XMPP members already contacted them to list XMPP as recommended
technology as well (we were not involved). Though, we think it is a good
thing, we wanted to ask if anything speaks against supporting this
campaign and aloow higher presence of XMPP as technology?
We are basically asking whether we can write messages in the media
channels like this:
________________
In Germany the word spreads for the "Digital Independence Day"
(https://di.day), and we also find vendor-independent messaging great!
Coincidentally, the first ‘DI.DAY’ was on the anniversary of XMPP,
January 4th!
So let's go for digital independence and sovereignty!
________________
We believe this could get us certain media attention in a significant
big media campaign in Germany.
Best regards,
Eddie
