I believe it's time for Council to take charge of this. It's just not
going to happen otherwise.
If elected, I'm going to make sure that Council reaches out to Open
Collective to restart the process. I already made brief contact with
them here: https://fosstodon.org/@benjam@opencollective.com/110587815984647713
Secondly, even with Council driving this, we're going to need help
from robbat2 and antarus regardless of whether they're trustees. I
suggest that we have a standing agenda item for the monthly Council
meetings to discuss the status of joining an umbrella.

I'll continue posting about potentially interesting work I've done for
Gentoo on Mastadon and r/gentoo. E.g.
https://fosstodon.org/@mattst88/110505343631103448 (fixing unaligned
accesses in Mesa and GTK, getting gdb fixed on sparc64)
https://fosstodon.org/@mattst88/109478769111923921 (GNOME 43, libsoup
2.4 -> 3.0 transition)
GNOME announcements on Reddit:
https://www.reddit.com/r/Gentoo/comments/nc6u1v/gnome_40_available_in_gentoo/
https://www.reddit.com/r/Gentoo/comments/tpqyzo/gnome_420_now_in_gentoo/
https://www.reddit.com/r/Gentoo/comments/zq4qqv/gnome_43_is_now_stable_on_amd64/
https://www.reddit.com/r/Gentoo/comments/138s3el/gnome_441_now_stable/
These have had surprisingly good engagement, I'm happy to say.

Like I mentioned previously, I think it's time for Council to take
over the effort to dissolve the Foundation, and we should do that by
having a standing item on the agenda.
