Staff continuing on as freenode staff is really dodgy, especially now that #python was just manually hijacked in the last 24 hours and Python foundation staff klined. Not a good look to be in such company.

> Nothing concrete has changed
There was one concrete change[0] just three days ago:
> Application reviews are backlogged and new applications are temporarily suspended
[0] https://fosshost.org/news/applications-temporarily-suspended
1) They're not giving the money back, or better and less conflict-of-interesty, giving it to a neutral pro-foss org like FSFE
2) They continue to intimately support freenode
3) Fosshost directors remain as freenode staff but in a """personal""" capacity, despite being overruled unanimously by the fosshost non-director staff.
Nothing concrete has changed, the only thing they have done is roll back their desire to integrate more deeply.
