[DLC] GNU MediaGoblin campaign for federation and privacy in 2014!

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Hey All,

My friend Chris Webber is throwing another fundraiser for his open
source project MediaGoblin.  MediaGoblin is like a decentralized
YouTube.  The idea is, if YouTube gets taken down for whatever reason,
1000s of cat videos will be lost.  If our media content is
decentralized, one take down order will have far less impact.  Also,
storing our media in a decentralized way makes it harder for the NSA
to spy on us.

Media Goblin is Chris's own project that he works on full time.  The
fundraiser is in collaboration with the Free Software Foundation and I
personally trust this guy, so you can be assured your donation will be
put to good use.  Donate here:  http://mediagoblin.org/pages/campaign.html

(Reasons this e-mail might be on topic:  Chris has spoken at Flourish,
our local Open Source Software conference.  MediaGoblin itself is free
and open source and is written in Python.)

Thank you,
eviljoel

Hello all,

I'm excited to announce that GNU MediaGoblin has launched our new
fundraising campaign. We've got a wonderful new video that I think
clearly explains our goals for the coming year... check it out
<http://mediagoblin.org/pages/campaign.html>!

Thanks to your support, this last year has been really excellent! We've
pushed out five major releases, and hosted six successful internships
through Summer of Code and Outreach Program for Women. Plus, we began
integrating federation into the main GNU MediaGoblin codebase and making
a general purpose federation library called PyPump.

We want to make the coming year the year of /Getting GNU MediaGoblin in
the hands of the people/!

So we're asking for your help. We've partnered up again with the Free
Software Foundation <https://fsf.org>, and we've got a lot of cool
things planned: wrapping up federation support and releasing version
1.0, adding new privacy features, podcast support, and making GNU
MediaGoblin even easier to run and deploy -- oh yeah!

We're offering some sweet rewards! Take a look
<http://mediagoblin.org/pages/campaign.html>.

Did I mention that since the FSF is a 501(c)(3) charity, your donations
are tax-deductible in the U.S.? This also means if your employer matches
charitable contributions, you have the option to magnify your donation
to GNU MediaGoblin! And finally, for folks who dig our work all year
round, we've set up monthly donations.

Thanks again for your help! /You/ make this possible!

Christopher Allan Webber,
GNU MediaGoblin lead developer

PS: Anything you can do to spread the word of the campaign REALLY helps!
Word of mouth from our supporters is the most effective way to get our
message out there, so if you can tell your family and friends, and post
to your blog or social networks... we'll be able to build the future of
the Web!

PPS: Thanks again! Seriously, you rock!
