many thanks jon! personally i do not like that the qrpedia domain is
registered cloaked, so nobody knows what comes out there later on.
this, and the long time the topic could not be settled is imo enough
to consider the name "qrpedia" as poisoned.
maybe it's best to just leave qrpedia to the people who registered it
and use another domain. qrcodes pointing to some website which then
redirects to some url is no rocket sience, and widely used since quite
a long time.
at WMCH we use qrcodes at least in two working groups, international
(tunesia e.g.) and GLAM. they are important to us, and i'd consider it
high risk to mount qrcode stickers physically which then link to a
site which has a cloaked owner. if qrpedia in 2 years time links to
pussy galore there is huge cost involved to change all the stickers
installed, beside the enormous reputational damage.

I really understand the sincerity of your interest and the need to get this
settled. I can assure you that as I write two of the trustees are working
hard to come to a solution that will be in the interest of the community and
the movement in general.

It does seem extraordinary that nobody seems able to write out a summary
of what these arguments are.
We are not asking for this information because we think it will lead to an
acceptable agreement more quickly; we are asking because we want to know
what is being done on our behalf.

However I do not think an acceptable agreement will come any more
quickly if we rehearse the many and complicated arguments on this list.
How did we get get here then?
