   So…what happened that the #FSF founders/board felt the need to publish this rambling, back-patting, perplexing post?

   It reads rather like a CYA.

     @vmbrasseur Ya I don’t get the motivation either but maybe it will surface in the coming days? I do see they are doing a fundraiser and maybe this is to get the org some attention in light of SFC’s recent win?

     The best explanation I can come up with is: “donate to us instead because of our defensive governance.”
