The FSF is seeking a principled, compassionate, and capable leader to be its new executive director. This position can be remote or based in our Boston office: https://u.fsf.org/3e5
@fsf The new #FSF executive director must have the guts & motivation to change the embarrassingly false "C" rating for #Gitlab.com to an "F". https://www.gnu.org/software/repo-criteria-evaluation.html
@resist1984 @fsf This is a volunteer effort. I was part of the team that set it up many years ago, but I haven't had time since then. And while this was created in collaboration with the FSF, authority over it falls to GNU.
If you or others are interested in participating, please send a message to https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/repo-criteria-discuss. If you don't hear anything there, send me a message.
@mikegerwitz @fsf The Gitlab problems have been raised a few times since 2019 IIRC, recently here: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/repo-criteria-discuss/2021-03/msg00022.html so there's nothing new to say. RMS also advocated for immediate #Gitlab downgrade (https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/repo-criteria-discuss/2021-03/msg00011.html) over a year past initial calls for the downgrade.
@resist1984 @fsf Last I was aware, we were in need of volunteers to go about making the necessary changes for the update. I suspect that's still the case.
I'll inquire (off-list).
