272951 Christopher Swingley <cswingle@g...> 2021‑03‑06 Re: Future of the List
GGs,

OK, I think we have the beginnings of a plan. I propose we migrate the List
to groups.io, and set up an opencollective for collecting donations (
https://docs.opencollective.com/help/about/introduction). I think the
advantage of using opencollective (or something similar) by comparison to
GoFundMe or direct PayPal payments to a person is that there's more
accountability and long term stability. I am happy to set up the group and
migrate subscriber information, etc., to groups.io, and I have started
setting up a donation site (https://opencollective.com/oldtools-list).

How does that sound to the assembled? Any issues anyone sees with groups.io
or opencollective?

Cheers,

Chris
