Re: Registering as a Non-Profit



Hello Nadim (and others),

what we need for german non-profit would be a declaration (satzung) for
starters. Some of the contents is standard.

There would still be a question: we can build a normal non-profit
organisation (gemeinnütziger Verein) or we could build a "Promotion
association" (?) that will only collect money and spend it on
arabeyes.org (Förderverein). That way we could create many such
organisations in different countries around the world.

i am sending two different standard declarations with this email for all
german speeking ones between us. i don't have the time to translate the
docs so, if anyone is able to translate them into english, so that
anyone can read what is written inside...

Salam.

Omar

Meaning you need 7 people in Germany in order to register ?  What is
the role of these people if any (ie. does it matter who they are or
can we say include family members just to boast the count :-) ?

So if setup in Germany, is their periodic paperwork involved or is it
"setup and forget" ?


If there is a problem with someone we are running into trouble.


Sorry, what do you mean ?


I know a egyptian Linux-Developer which live in Berlin, maybe he
want to join too...


Yeah, Ayman - so consider we have 4 now.


In France there is a possibility with two People, but the Assosiation
has only limited rights and I think it is not acceptable.


Sounds like we should continue to consider other options.

Salam.

 - Nadim
