Many years ago I worked on a project with some FSF staff who refused to use non-FOSS solutions to coordinate or conduct meetings. While the developers involved where all prolific contributors to open source projects used by millions of people, they were all willing to compromise on some of the tools we use to develop and communicate for “the greater good”. The FSF staff weren’t willing to make those compromises. At the time I was frustrated by this. As Slack ownership changed, costs increased and policies around what they could do with “our” data evolved, I now have a lot more respect for the FSF staff who are “holding the line”.
I assume it’s probably a colossal process to uproot and move infrastructure, but personally I see that eventual hassle as being better than the project never getting enough momentum in the first place.
I think once you actually have a project and audience you can make all the most ideal choices but they do come with costs that really matter when you’re just starting things
I recognize I’m no expert on running these projects though
@Cris_Color @kreynen I agree. I think fundamentally this is a good project / idea. I am trying to work out where I might contribute - Im a Business Analyst with Web Content experience so my though was to start in Documentation and communication to start. Consequently Im interested in talking to anyone with any #fintech #payments and #corebanking knowledge.
@Cris_Color @pastermil @kreynen I haven’t asked the question of the project. - I actually going to attend the intro session to learn more amout the project.
