Howdy folks, I've heard back from some of y'all about getting regular chats scheduled (and have even scheduled some!). Thanks. I haven't heard back from everyone, so if you write to <tor-reports>, you should also write back to schedule some time. This is just a reminder that you should totally do that thing.
Also, know this: I am quite amenable to all kinds of communications. I'd like something real-time, so email, regular mail, Pond, and carrier Pigeons aren't great. However, XMPP, IRC, Ostel [that's SIP with ZRTP], and all sorts of other things which aren't really words but are totally ways of talking are great. I will even install Skype if you ask me to, but I'll judge you for it, (just a little). One moderately-F AQ on my previous mail pertained to **who exactly** should talk to me. If you should email <tor-reports> monthly, you should talk to me. If Tor gives you money, that probably means you. If you volunteer on a project for which other people give Tor money, that also means you. If you think you might be a person who wants to work on a project for which people give Tor money (and perhaps even get paid for it), that might mean you too, and if I know what you want to do, there's a slightly-increased likelihood of us pitching someone doing that thing. Hope to hear from you soon, -Tom On 29 October 2013 11:30, Tom Lowenthal <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello fighters for freedom, > > When applying for grants, planning future work, and otherwise thinking > about what capacity we have leftover to do things in the future, it's > really useful to know who's doing what and how much of it.
