My guess is that if we talked about specifically who should follow this, we’d end up agreeing that >90% of readers of this thread should largely ignore for now. I vaguely recall that some 5000 people read the forum every week.
I do think that one person from each major EA org should be following along, and providing regular updates to their team for reasons of morale and (e.g.) suggestions on how to approach social media and the enquiries from journalists that we might expect to receive.
I also think that one person (from CEA) should be point person on this and put together a small team to support them, consult stakeholders, etc, if necessary.
FWIW I called around a bit last night and my understanding is that there is a very competent “point person”, and I am satisfied that they and the small group supporting them will help the community navigate this in a good/excellent way over the next days and weeks.
Yep, I would emphasise “most” in my post above.
