I would actually not consider discussions about policies that directly affect the Julia community to be Offtopic at all, but to firmly belong in the Community category (or potentially JuliaCon). That includes calls for signing an open letter in support of public science. Maybe the thought was that the “science” community is only “adjacent” to the “Julia” community… but either way, there’s nothing inappropriate about it.
