Re: [Trisquel-users] How to found a Free Software company?

Yes I am in Germany, but not in a big city. In Germany there is something  
similar to 501(c)(3) where you have to pay less taxes. But I don't think it  
has to be a non-profit. Free software does not exclude profits, you can make  
a profit by selling free software. I know that Richard Stallman did his emacs  
tape distribution before he founded the Free Software Foundation. It was  
about 150 USD per tape. As I have hardware development expierences, I could  
try to develop and sell freedom respecting hardware. I could ask the Free  
Software Foundation to run a crowdfunding campaing for me.
