I submitted it today with Rosanna as the contact person!

They said they review them on a rolling basis so we should hear back in the
next couple of weeks.

We reached our FoG goal \o/

2013-07-21 Thread Tobias Mueller
Hi everyone!

I blog-posted already but I haven't sent a mail yet.
Our fundraiser is complete. We received 2 USD to make GNOME more secure and 
more privacy aware.

We should think about the next steps. I.e. we should update the current banner 
to thank the donors. Andreas suggested something along the lines of
"Thank you all generous donors for helping us reach our security and privacy 
campaign goal of $20.000". What do you think? Could anybody do it?

We might also want to get some press release out. We have a good climate now to 
get good coverage.

Cheers,
  Tobi
