Dear all
I tried to translate our bylaws but gave up because it's very difficult.
Then I had the idea to get the English version of the German Wikimedia
bylaws since these are widely identical to ours. Then I found out that
the German Wikimedia bylaws only partially exist in English:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Deutschland/Satzung/English
the same seems to be with the French Wikimedia chapter. The next
question is: Why does the swiss chapter have to translate its bylaws?
Then I thought that bylaws must be approved before a new chapter can be
founded. But
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Local_chapter_FAQ
says: "Once your chapter is operational, a contract regarding your
chapter's logo and trademark use might be made."
This means we're not in a hurry about getting the bylaws approved since
we are not an operational chapter right now.
If we really need to translate the bylaws it would make sense to work
together with the German chapter.
Regards
Robin
