Petition: Let Our Content Go

John Halstead has started a Change.org petition to Patheos to get our content removed from their site:

Help Pagan writers get back control of their intellectual property from Patheos.com

Whilst I think it is a pity to move large swathes of Pagan articles from their original web addresses, thereby disrupting the blogging ecosystem, I also feel sick at heart that any of my writing could possibly be perceived as endorsing the right-wing organisations to which BeliefNet is connected in any way. That is why I am a co-signatory to the letter and petition.

I hope that one of the new collective Pagan blogging projects will be able to form a new hub for Pagan discussions and perhaps host or link out to some of the content that has been, or will be, migrated from Patheos.
