<div dir="auto">Ok, let me ask you this: <div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">1. Do you think the OMSF mailing list is where all community members feel safe and included to communicate?</div><div dir="auto">2. If not, what steps can we take to do this better?</div><div dir="auto">3. If osmf continues down this road, how will they do so to also be ssfe, inclusive and equitable in terms of power and true dialogue?</div><div dir="auto">4. What will each person responding to make sure that: more women respond, more people from other regions of the world respond, and, more importantly, that this is a safe and inclusive mailing list that is truly global, truly equitable and truly safe?</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Thanks again for the dialogue</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Heather </div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Mon, 17 Aug 2020, 19:33 john whelan, <<a href="mailto:jwhelan0112@gmail.com">jwhelan0112@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="auto">I think formal communications should be done on an open platform.<div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">There is a danger that Facebook or something similar could exclude some people and if it is a discussion that impacts the map start it on Slack if you will but it should not mean that decisions about imports etc are made there since not all mappers have access to Facebook, Slack etc.</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Cheerio John</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Mon, Aug 17, 2020, 13:27 Heather Leson <<a href="mailto:heatherleson@gmail.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">heatherleson@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="auto">Great.

In an ideal world where we all engage with the same interent access and communications methods, this works. However, I am asking "does this limit our ability to be a truly inclusive equitable global community"? Not an easy question, but I guess I would like to hear from other community voices. </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Thank you,</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Heather </div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Mon, 17 Aug 2020, 19:14 Martin Koppenhoefer, <<a href="mailto:dieterdreist@gmail.com" rel="noreferrer noreferrer" target="_blank">dieterdreist@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><br>

or services which some might prefer to not use because they don’t want their accesses traced, like google documents.<br>
