[Chapter-delegates] Open Internet Endowment

[Joly MacFie]

There was an official IETF notice earlier in the day, but it mentions a
"public announcement" in the future - so I guess it is in beta..

Subject: Open Internet Endowment Initial Campaign
To: IETF Announce <ietf-announce at ietf.org>
Cc: IETF <ietf at ietf.org>


Today at IETF 84 in Vancouver, Lynn St. Amour and I announced the creation
of the Open Internet Endowment and its initial campaign focused on ensuring
the IETF's long-term financial health and continued independence. The web
site is up and running.  It offers more information and accepts
contributions.

        http://www.openinternetendowment.org

The Open Internet Endowment has been established by the Internet Society,
with the support and direction of IETF leadership, based on discussions
that have taken place over the past several years. This announcement is
intended as a "family launch" to the IETF community. It gives our community
an opportunity to be a "first supporter" of this effort.  The "family
launch" will end when we make a public announcement in the near future.

Please consider supporting this effort and making a donation today!

Thanks for all you do for the Internet,
   Russ
