Hi,
I just wanted to remind the german-speaking subscribers to this list that Matthias Kabel, me and some more guys from Austria are planning to create some kind of national austrian fsf-europe subsection. The legal construct of an association (=Verein) seemed the best to us (AFAIK this is the way a lot of Non-Profit Organizations, including Greenpeace, work).
Matthias has put a draft for a statuatory on the web which can be found at http://www.salzburg.luga.or.at/fsf-statuten.tex
Such a statutuatory is required by austrian Law and our draft is structured in the way it should be. But the impüortant thing is that we should discuss the content, e.g. how could we formulated what the intention af the association will be in a better way. This does not necessarily mean the legal way of formulating it, but rather the ideologic component - what has to be in it, what should be changed/avoided.
This has been posted some time ago here, but it seems that we've been carried away a bit by the Logo-Issue (wich is also important, but we shouldn't forget about the rest).
It would be great if some of you would be willing to take the time and have a critic look at it ...
Thanks a lot,
--Georg
