This is pretty disingenuous to be honest.
- It was discussed for 10+ days with the whole BOD
- I raised the topic to the community to discuss after those 10 days, and asked for people to step up and help with ideas or their time.
- 112 replies later, one person in the UK actually stepped up (thanks @mattlacey)
I as a board member, can not ignore a potential threat to the donation dollars our global community of users have worked hard for, and generously donated to Haiku, Inc. People don’t donate funds to us so we can “fight UK law”, they donate to advance the development of the Haiku operating system… and I feel as though most of the responses here support that position.
With the above said, i’m going to go ahead and lock this thread. I’ll coordinate with @mattlacey to see if we can figure out a system to keep the forums available to the UK. If you’re in the UK and want to help Matt out, please reach out to the board (or Matt ;-)) directly.
Take this thread as “laws matter, laws your country passes matter”. If you’re not happy about the way this is going, complain to your representatives, not us. We’re doing the best we can with the volunteer help we got.
