I can understand that, but I really doubt that the German law provides no way to have a viable assotiation with more than a handful of “members”, that term being understood as: people that pay a subscription and are able to vote for decisions or name a board of representatives to take decisions. Being French myself, of course I mostly know French law associations, but I also subscribed to Debian France, which is an Alsace-Moselle law association. I think this is quite close to the German law, and as far as I know, I am a member of it, although I have never been sollicitated for an assembly yet. -- Tanguy Ortolo _______________________________________________ Discussion mailing list [email protected] https://mail.fsfeurope.org/mailman/listinfo/discussion
