Due to that, *all* donations that normally have been donated to the German association, were donated to the TDF account. In a nutshell: In the last three months, the German association did not receive *any* donation, at least not via PayPal (and if any donation via bank account, then only a small amount). My understanding was that FrODev.org was accepting donations that could be earmarked for TDF - if it has turned out that 100$ of said donations were so earmarked, well that is hard on FrODev.org sure - the association (FrODev.org) should address that internally.

Donations done by these buttons will *not* go to TDF, but rather to the German association directly. This should at least be an interim solution until we worked out a concept for local NGOs. What do you think? Among other concerns (which I've edited out of this email), I am worried about the precedent this sets. It seems to me that there are numerous places in the current website where a link to the FrODev.org website could be integrated and I would be all for that - but the actual pitch for a donation, for FrODev.org, should IMO be at that site.

Re: [tdf-discuss] donation button on German download page
Hi Drew, Disclaimer: I am wearing a double hat here, since I am in the board of directors at FrODeV, so I have to consider both sides (TDF and FrODeV). drew wrote on 2011-09-20 14:51: My understanding was that FrODev.org was accepting donations that could be earmarked for TDF - if it has turned out that 100$ of said donations were so earmarked, well that is hard on FrODev.org sure - the association (FrODev.org) should address that internally. legally, all money is donated to FrODeV, because it is the legal entity capable of accepting donations. SPI is another entity collecting donations for TDF. Since donations are legally bound to certain reasons, FrODeV has set-up a separate account for TDF. Quotation marks, because at the moment, TDF = FrODeV in legal terms, so both accounts belong to FrODeV. However, two accounts make it easier to track the donations for one specific reason, as we are legally bound. The problem is: Nearly 100% of the donations FrODeV as legal entity received in the last months are for the TDF. That means, that for other activities of FrODeV, like their own web site, event participation, production of merchandise and the like. If FrODev.org is still paying bills for TDF our of the FrODev.org working accounts I would ask Why and suggest they stop. You'd better not ask this question, since otherwise, they may indeed stop. ;-) This is important in my mind - TDF becoming a legal entity is, I hear, getting close... so are you saying that it is not in shape to stand on it's own feet, financially, at this point? This doesn't solve the problem. The money needs to belong to one entity, someone needs to register domains and trademarks etc., and this entity currently is FrODeV. TDF cannot stand on its own feet as long as it is no legal entity. So, if you ask FrODeV to stop, that means that *ALL* activities would need to be shut down *IMMEDIATELY*, until another organisation taking care 1. of donations/handling money and 2. acting as interim legal entity is found. Is FrODev.org to continue some financial role after TDF is legal? There are no fixed plans yet. FrODeV and TDF will be to separate entities and each has to find their positioning. Sure, FrODeV might donate to TDF and vice-versa, but this is a topic for the future. Among other concerns (which I've edited out of this email), I am worried about the precedent this sets.

I think most people are not aware what FrODeV does and how important this is for us. Again: We have an association acting as interim legal entity. Without this association, *NOTHING* of what we do here at the moment would be possible. Due to the tremendous success of TDF, this association has a problem - all donations coming in are bound to TDF, since many people do not know the difference. That's what we from FrODeV want to address, and therefore, we would like to add a donation button to (only) the German websites, so people are actually aware of that association. Sure, this is an exception that others might ask for as well. However, people should keep in mind that FrODeV has a somewhat special role at the moment.

Re: [tdf-discuss] donation button on German download page
Hi, Original-Nachricht Von: drew d...@baseanswers.com An: discuss@documentfoundation.org Betreff: Re: [tdf-discuss] donation button on German download page I know the topic about local NGOs is still to be discussed, I think we should keep in mind, that other NGOs might have the same problems and requirements - without this, some of the (my) answers would hardly have any sense ... My understanding was that FrODev.org was accepting donations that could be earmarked for TDF - if it has turned out that 100$ of said donations were so earmarked, well that is hard on FrODev.org sure - the association (FrODev.org) should address that internally. The quite simple rule for FroDev is, that the money gets spent for the purpose that is mentioned in the donation (as long as it is in line with general FroDev mission). If we would adress that internally what should we do about it? Take x% of the donations for FrODev? Besides the fact that this would 8likely) be illegal in German law I would not go for that, as the money rally should be used for TDF if it was intended for TDF. If FrODev.org is still paying bills for TDF our of the FrODev.org working accounts I would ask Why and suggest they stop. FrODev is paying TDF bills from the money that was donated to support TDF. All this money is tracked and accounted separately. Apart from that FrODev is still sponsoring several activities within Germany (e.g. QA weekend, people's participation in local events, local marketing materials ...). While these activities support LibreOffice (and as such TDF) these are local activities - and would hardly get any priority for TDF as a global foundation. This is important in my mind - TDF becoming a legal entity is, I hear, getting close... so are you saying that it is not in shape to stand on it's own feet, financially, at this point? Is FrODev.org to continue some financial role after TDF is legal? Of course it will - it will still support local activities, just as other NGOs will do. This should at least be an interim solution until we worked out a concept for local NGOs. Well - I'd propose the solution as a general one for other NGOs. The problem is of course to define a certain level of collaboration between local NGOs and TDF. Among other concerns (which I've edited out of this email), I am worried about the precedent this sets. I don't get the message here. Do you mean that once we allowed this for FrODev, we will face lots of NGOs requesting donation links at the local download pages? If yes - I'd suggest to make the current link an exclusive one (given the fact, FrODev actually is not just the TDF bank account FroDev members also do the accounting, prepared lots of paperwork, FroDev is supposed to be the actual founding entity and FroDev is going to donate 10% of the foundation's captial stock - in addition to the donations that have been received for TDF). This decision should be taken under obligation (for TDF SC) to work on general rules how to define collaboration with local NGOs and entities. It seems to me that there are numerous places in the current website where a link to the FrODev.org website could be integrated and I would be all for that - but the actual pitch for a donation, for FrODev.org, should IMO be at that site. Again - seems to be my lack of English language - I don't get if you after all agree to have the link at the donation page, or that (althoug you have concerns) you would agree, that the German download page would be the correct place to go?

Hello André Just on this last point - to clarify - I would be in favor of links to the FrODev.org website from pages on any of the TDF/LibreOffice websites. I would be in favor of a button (mechanism) on the FrODev.org websites for donations specifically for FrODev and exclusive from TDF. I would not be in favor of placing those donate buttons on TDF/LibreOffice web pages directly. Following that train of thought then: I would be in favor of individuals working a trade show booth for LibreOffice in Germany also handing out literature showcasing FrODev and such literature asking for a donation directly to FrODev and exclusive of TDF. I would not be in favor of handing out literature with LibreOffice branding that asked for FrODeve specific donations.

Why else was there a separate TDF account created, if not to use it just this way? that's what we already do. Anything that directly relates to TDF, like domains, hosting, trademarks and the like, is being paid from the TDF account. However, that does not solve the problem - all donations go to the TDF account and are therefore bound for TDF. Still, FrODeV has their own fees to pay, their own events to organize, and due the lack of incoming donations, which is a result of the (actually positive) amount of donations for TDF, this gets more and more complicated I think FrODeV is in a rather different situation than any other NGO. Donors who want to do something good for LibreOffice in Germany donate money to the TDF account, as they want the Foundation in Germany. While I assume that other associations will also have less donations because of TDF being so prominent, I doubt they have zero donations. So, wearing my FrODeV hat, and representing the association and its members, I must find options to limit that impact. Otherwise FrODeV will help setting up TDF, but then run into severe financial problems itself - and that's something, as member of the board of directors, which I cannot support, so we need to find solutions. I would assume (note that word) that the first order of business for the BOD after TDF becomes legal would be to take control of all TDF financial matters, and that at this point FrODev (and it's members) would cease to have any official role with TDF accounting. That's my understanding, indeed. All legal affairs concerning TDF, including assets like domain names and trademarks, and the accounting, will be handed over to TDF. In the end, we have two separate entities, each of them responsible for their business. Of course, there will be strong links, but legally, they are separate.
