But it would be very useful to start a project to spread awareness of the harm that GitHub does. This is a big project, and to do it, we need volunteers. We need a leader, or a group of a few leaders, to make a commitment to get this going. If you would like to do this, please write to me off the list. -- Dr Richard Stallman Chief GNUisance of the GNU Project (https://gnu.org) Founder, Free Software Foundation (https://fsf.org) Internet Hall-of-Famer (https://internethalloffame.org)
