FSF leadership

[Helio Chissini de Castro]

I understand RH. The gamemis political now, is a chance to make FSF a real
org to match Linux Foundation power domination recently. They just can't
speak directly about this, but use the nice inclusion topic, helping then
to say the message without been heavy political sided.

And i want raise a concern here as well.

The current FSF VP, Alexandre Oliva, i know personally from long time. He
is as extremist as RMS, but only in software territory, and seen like a
current twitter post, it shows that is going down to the hill like RMS.

So, we need carefully choose the words if we want to say a message.

If we do want to support the new times, but avoid fall in the risk of
having aoliva as a president and FSF will not change at all, can even been
more dangerous.
