   Thank you all for your feedback.  I’ve been talking with folks on 
various platforms today, and it seems I’ve found a good option.  There is a new 
meteorite-related, international, non-profit organization standing up soon.  
They’ve agreed to host GA-style information including images with free and open 
access.  What I’d like to do, if it’s alright with y’all, is to host content on 
that platform and send links to the Met List.  That way y’all can share in the 
content, the information remains freely available, and this also solves the 
problem of how to share images (strewn fall calculations, images of radar 
signatures, etc.).    This new organization is going to make its 
debut online in about a month and will have their own announcements – I don’t 
want to steal their thunder by saying more than that now. It looks like this is 
going to work well.      If any new falls occur between now and 
then, well I’m working on that.  I’ll find a way to disseminate that 
information.    Cheers, Marc    From: Swan Valley Bushcraft

Hi Marc,

That sounds like a good option to me. Although I believe that any extra
traffic here as long as Meteorite related would be great anyway in whatever
format, be that an original post or a link elsewhere.

Howdy all

  Thank you all for your feedback.  I've been talking with folks on 
various platforms today, and it seems I've found a good option.  There is a new 
meteorite-related, international, non-profit organization standing up soon.  
They've agreed to host GA-style information including images with free and open 
access.  What I'd like to do, if it's alright with y'all, is to host content on 
that platform and send links to the Met List.  That way y'all can share in the 
content, the information remains freely available, and this also solves the 
problem of how to share images (strewn fall calculations, images of radar 
signatures, etc.).
  This new organization is going to make its debut online in about 
a month and will have their own announcements - I don't want to steal their 
thunder by saying more than that now. It looks like this is going to work well.

  If any new falls occur between now and then, well I'm working on 
that.  I'll find a way to disseminate that information.

Cheers,
Marc

Hello Marc

This Meteorite List has terms of service as well, and has removed individuals 
based upon their postings. It would be a shame if our precious meteorite list 
was dragged into an ideological debate as we have struggled to keep the List on 
topic in the past.

Even though this List is not a democracy, I vote no on your proposal as briefly 
described.

Announcements are fine, I believe, as long as they abide by the TOS, but an 
increased traffic flow is concerning if it deviates from the spirit and purpose 
of this List. Perhaps more clarification about your proposal is needed.

Best wishes

  For the past several years I've run Galactic Analytics on 
Facebook.  It has been a freely available forum to discuss meteors and 
meteorite falls, and a convenient site for me to disseminate radar data showing 
potential meteorite falls.  When I started this, Facebook was an open forum for 
all participants. Unfortunately, Facebook has recently enacted policies which 
restrict the uncensored flow of content between one end of the political 
spectrum in particular.  I cannot support censorship, as it is a form of 
oppression.  I have shut down Galactic Analytics (but will retain old content 
on Facebook for the time being) and am looking for a new, open venue to host 
content.
  Most of the options include starting up some new platform, which 
has the drawback of adding yet another source for interested parties to keep 
track of.  However it occurred to me that we can use this as an opportunity to 
consolidate sources.

  What would you all think if I were to start posting GA content on 
the Meteorite List?  When an event occurs I can post it here.  I will have to 
find a server to host images but that is do-able.  Be advised that it may 
increase MetList traffic by a sizable fraction.

  What do you think?
