[governance] End to End encryption (was: Fwd: FB open letter e2e update...)

[Sheetal Kumar]

Dear Salanieta, all,

Could we check with Joe at CDT whether the deadline has been extended? And
if we find out we can ask the list whether there are any objections to
signing on within whatever timeframe is provided.

I'm happy to get in touch with Joe.

Best
Sheetal.
