April works typically like a French 1901 association and many other associations. This is not exactly the same kind of association as FSFE (e.V.) also they are legally similar, I would like to point out the cultural difference here. For historical reasons, although FSFE was quite European at the beginning (including France), it has a lot of Germany's cultural aspects in the way the organisation works, that's more like other German associations I am aware of. Now, I would like to point out that April as a "Conseil d'administration" something that FSFE does not have. And I don't think this is easier to get into April's CA than to become a member of the FSFE. It just works differently. Now, which is better is another matter, and IMHO all the points you raise are valid and worth discussing. -- Hugo Roy im: [email protected] French Coordinator mobile: +33.6 0874 1341 The Free Software Foundation Europe works to create general understanding and support for software freedom in politics, law, business and society.
