fsfe.org SIP service?

[Daniel Pocock]

Can anybody comment on whether FSFE has SIP or is planning to use SIP?

I notice an SRV record exists for _sip._udp.fsfe.org but no TLS record
(there should also be _sips._tcp.fsfe.org)

I've recently proposed SIP service for debian.org and it would be fairly
easy to replicate this for other free software communities, here are the
details:

https://wiki.debian.org/UnifiedCommunications/DebianDevelopers

As I'm quite involved in the development of several of the necessary
packages I'd be happy to help FSFE get them into use

i'm quite new in the fsfe systems administration, but if i read the
documentation cerrectly the sip service is listed as historical, so i
think the dns entry is only a leftover.

(i'm cc'ing system-hackers so that somebody can correct me if i'm wrong
about that)

regardless of the current status of our sip service, thank you for the
offer.

This is a leftover. It was maintained by volunteers for some time and
then it was no longer maintained.

Thank you very much for the offer, I would love to have this service.

Our system hackers will get in touch with you. This might take a bit,
and at the moment they have to consolidate our infrastructure so it
might be a bad time to introduce new services.

We also thought about the option of volunteers runing new services, but
for sustainability we thought about the condition to have 3 Fellows
commited to maintain the service, before we introdue it to all Fellows.

Regards,
Matthias

I really like this concept. We could also explicitly mark these services as
provided by fellows for fellows, so it is clear that it only runs as long as
there are volunteers to maintain it.

We could even list the people taking care of a service on our homepage with
little face icons and links to their blogs/homepages to give credit and to
show potential users of the service who's behind it.

FSFE's fellowship would then provide the umbrella, the hardware and cover
other related costs.

Kind Regards,
Torsten
