Hi Christian,

If you want more diversity, the first question must be: Why doesn't it work? The answer, that there are simply no woman, for example, just white cis man is imho something made easy.
Agreed. I hope what I wrote didn't come off that way. I meant to describe a challenge, not make an excuse. When in comes to the FSFE, there are also additional issues to consider: For us, diversity should probably also involve geographic or cultural diversity. These are tough questions to solve, but I think very important for the future of our movement.
We have to remove any and all barriers for speakers and activists to share their expertise and knowledge with the community.
Also agreed. One of the ideas to reduce barriers was to examine the use of mailing lists vs something without as many implicit rules (and potentially more inviting design), such as our Discourse instance (community.fsfe.org). I would be interested to hear what you and others on here think. Have you tried out the platform yet? If yes, what do you think. If not, why not?
Happy hacking! Florian
