+1 on FLOSS Manuals as an associated project. I vouch for them as substantial and significant. And I know Janet. Janet, we'll need the information on this page: http://spi-inc.org/projects/associated-project-howto/ You can send that information to any SPI Board Member. Having your members join as Contributing Members to SPI is recommended just so you can participate in Board elections. However, it is not a prerequisite. One other thing you should think about is that money collected in the US *cannot* be transferred to the Stichting. Instead, you will need to spend that money on direct documented expenses (which can be incurred in the Netherlands, the USA, or whereever). --Josh Berkus Assistant Treasurer, SPI _______________________________________________ Spi-general mailing list Spi-general@lists.spi-inc.org http://lists.spi-inc.org/listinfo/spi-general
