The thing has started. :-)
David Lyon is currently finding out costs to set up a non-profit
organization in Germany.
In the meantime I suggest that we draw a list of active supporters, to:
1) Finance the registration costs.
2) Be available to be 'member of the board', or to hold some of the
official positions required by the law.
3) Be available to carry on administrative duties.
I don't know the German law. In Italy a non-profit has very low
registration costs and very light administrative duties, but a number of
persons which take responsibility is required.
We already have Michael's Van Canneyt available to act as a liaison
between the foundation and core developers, as 'member of the board' or
whatever.
Whoever is available for any of the points above, or others points which
may pop up once David has dig out all information, should post an
answer, stating so.
For some functions being German or UE based could be
necessary/advisable, but this again we'll know from David.
Useless to say that, being the one who's re-triggered the matter, I'm
available for whatever is necessary.
Giuliano
