They'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?
