Seeking feedback on Community Council nominations, and a call for more

by

In an important step toward ensuring a safe, constructive, and empowered
community, the F-Droid Board put out a call for Community Council
nominations
and subsequent
extension.
This search yielded one nomination, that of Vishal Bakhai, aka vdbhb59
(Harry), who is an active moderator of the F-Droid forum and other channels.

If you have any feedback about the nomination of Vishal, or feedback about
the process of the Community Council, please email elections {at} f-droid
{dot} org before 2025-02-18. We’ll also try to monitor other channels on a
best effort basis.

If you would like to nominate yourself or somebody else as a potential
member of the Community Council, we welcome nominations via elections {at}
f-droid {dot} org until the end of the feedback period on 2025-02-18.

Google Maps is run by cowards

by
Google, on its Google Maps naming policy, back in 2008: By saying “common”, we mean to include names which are in widespread daily use, rather than giving immediate recognition to any arbitrary governmental re-naming. In other words, if a ruler announced that henceforth the Pacific Ocean would be named after her mother, we would not add that placemark unless and until the name came into common usage. Google, today, in 2025: Google has confirmed that Google Maps will soon rename the Gulf of Mexico and Denali mountain in Alaska as the “Gulf of America” and “Mount McKinley” in line with changes implemented by the Trump Administration, but users in the rest of the world may see two names for these locations. Nothing is worth less than the word of a corporation.
