Anyone interested in meeting with geoff @ gitpod to talk about mybinder.org crypto abuse?

[choldgraf]

Hey all - I reached out to Geoff Huntley (https://twitter.com/geoffreyhuntley) who is organizing a community of practice around groups that host public services and that are getting hit by crypto abuse. He offered to meet with us to chat about our challenges and discuss what he is working on as well.

Is anybody else interested in joining a meeting with him? I don't think I would be the best person to do so, because I don't understand the cloud infrastructure well enough. If anyone else is interested in joining, please ping here or let me know and I can make the connection. If nobody else is interested, then I'll let him know we probably don't have capacity to work on this

[betatim]

I'd be interested. How do I get in touch with him?

[MridulS]

I'd be interested too!

[minrk]

I'd be interested, time permitting.

I'm interested in joining if I'm free. Don't try and organise around me though, find a time that works for everyone else and if I'm free I'll join.

Sounds good - thus far it has just been a single back-and-forth email exchange with him. I believe that he is off until the beginning of January, so what I will do is send an email to him that cc's everybody on this thread, and we can plan to dig into this via a meeting or something in January.

For folks that are interested in joining, can you send me your email addresses to <chris's github username> at gmail.com? Here's a checklist to reflect the ones that I have:

• [x] @betatim
• [x] @minrk
• [ ] @MridulS
• [ ] @manics

I'd like to try join given availability like Simon also suggested, I'll join if it seems possible but don't plan around me! I've emailed you as well btw Chris!

👋 hey folks; thanks for creating the GitHub issue. I'm indeed off on school holidays from next week until late January. When I get back would be lovely to catchup with you all/plan from there. See also https://twitter.com/geoffreyhuntley/status/1468040448316882946?s=21

Interested ✋🏽

[chicocvenancio]

I'd be interested in participating as an outside party.

[choldgraf]

Hey all - just a general update here, let's wrangle a team to discuss this in January once folks are back from holiday and various breaks!

[thomafred]

Hi everyone, I would love to join this meeting :)

As am I

I think we are still waiting for @ghuntley to be back from traveling - but he can probably confirm that better than us :-)
