Hi,

thanks for commenting it out. The paypal account is inactive.

@ PCMan do you want to put your account there? As I see it, it would
be best if you put yours there.

About the foundation website. It needs to point to another IP. I will
talk to Andrew about it.

About the foundation: Currently, there is not much going on from the
association side. It is set up as a non-profit and tax exempt in
Germany. So, it could be used in the way other orgs use it to collect
donation or organize events or do anything people in the community
want. If anyone needs an official body, we can use the Foundation.
Just get in touch with me and I help.

Generally, what I think could help to grow the community is, if
developers sign up for talks at conferences and start to involve
people there. I know that it is kind of impossible to get PCMan to an
international conference, but maybe others can jump in. My experience
is, that face to face meetings at events can create some magic for
projects. Generally, ideas how to involve more developers again would
be good to think about. I think there was a lot of buzz about LXDE in
recent years. Some people joined, some said they want to join, but
maybe did not know how to progress and participate or did not do it
for other reasons. Well, I do not know how to involve more devs
without face to face meet ups.

my 2 cents.

All the best,

Mario
