I noticed that some people started using Fellowship signatures.
Karsten Gerloff and myself go for the "keep it short & simple" approach:
Join the Fellowship and protect your freedom! (www.fsfe.org)
Ciaran O’Riordan already goes for a little more fancy:
Ciaran O'Riordan, ___________/ Support FSFE's campaigns against IPRED2 http://ciaran.compsoc.com/ _/ and software patents by joining the Fellowship ___________________________/ and encouraging others to do so http://fsfe.org
But the coolest signature I have seen so far was by Sebastian Fontius, who also did the Firefox Throbber and some Desktop Backgrounds:
: Sebastian Fontius : https://www.fsfe.org/en/fellows/smc `--------+----------+--------------------------------------------------. [] | "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little | [][][] | temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." | || : Benjamin Franklin, 1759 :
This makes it possible to show what we stand for with every email we write — and possibly get others interested in our issues. Ultimately, building awareness is one of our most important tasks: Only if we can make enough people aware of these issues and get them to stand up for their freedom will we be able to maintain it in the long run.
