Exactly! I am getting tired of FOSS orgs thinking they can speak for their entire extended community.
`PSF` should be inserted before every occurance of the word volunteer in that page.
- SiempreViernes 7y agoUh, I think the PSF branding on that page is pretty clear. If you don't want to read a text in the context it's given that's your choice, but don't complain that it becomes ambiguous if read outside of its proper context.
- bigiain 7y agoThey're announcing that the (small group of) people developing the Python2 executable are no longer going to do so after Jan 1st. In what way does this imply that they're speaking for any "extended community"? Who're you trying to say is being mistaken here as being a "volunteer" but is not a 'PSF volunteer". I totally get that there is an "extended community" around the Python language(s), including at least module authors, people who write Python frameworks, and people who write code in Python - and _possibly_ including devs at companies who have built products in Python or relying on Python. But it's 100% obvious that the linked article is referring to none of those people. Who do you think this "FOSS org" was appropriately speaking for?
- ajayyy 7y agoThey manage merging though, so it has to be a fork.
