If you want to go beyond mere blocking and security tools, you need a lot of real privacy wisdom and experience. Many people with this experience read this mailing-list. I don't know how many of those will move to the Community Group. It is difficult to make web developers talk to privacy people and vice versa. PING is quite good in that respect and overcomes some of it. A dev-only corner will be cozy but perhaps not as informed. To do efficient privacy, you also need to take legal requirements in most non-US countries into account. They are reading this list too. I don't want to discourage the PUA CG, but it should regularly present here what they are doing and gather for further input. This will help avoid the repeating unfruitful attempts because the slightly wrong direction was taken. Best, Rigo
