Even if it's meant honestly, I think I would be bonding with the wrong people. Of course, I can only decide for myself.</div><div style="background-color: transparent;"><br></div><div style="background-color: transparent;">Another question arose while I was discussing this topic with other cryptoparty organizers in my area: There seems to be another version of this offer that demands us not to talk negatively about closed source software as a solution for security requirements. Does anyone know more about it and could share it with us? This would be the second reason for me to decline the offer. Although I
don't have anything against closed source in general, I think it's not suitable for serious security business, because I don't like to entrust my life to black boxes.</div><div><br></div><div style="font-size: 12pt;"><div style="font-size: 12pt;"><div dir="ltr">Best regards,</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">Jochim</div></div></div> </div></body></html>
