do you know any who'd let their legal advantadges derived of their "corporation" status ? (i'd like to know more about in comparision with the cooperative or association status for example) some examples i.e. get to use an account from our bank accounts sharing world network for fundraising for your project. i.e.2. get to use our legal number for doing your construction work if you invest what you get from that job in a 'nice' project (aproved without too much burocracy by us) (we won't tax you much) i.e.3. is there an activists' activities insurance 'bigsomething' ? one that we could use for granting projects developments (i.e. some works for the state i.e. software implementations in the public administration is taken by i.e. novell(SUSELinux) and then passed from them, after taxing it, to a local subcontracted companies because the state papers asks you for having a big economic activity and insurance) (that was a real case that happened to 'me' while trying to get those jobs for other more free local free software communities. ended with: novell getting the job, people at schools misusing opensuse linux, it could go wrong so probably after no more free software proposed by the local goverment ) i.e.4. flash moneylender (i.e. at some cases you need to show you have 5000 $ for setting up a cooperative, you could withdraw that money the day after, but you need to show that) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJOzpXUAAoJEAlfUArKi+ECYLkIAIHfwsF/7Pc8N9FZNjHnMQK7 oVt5itM5P+3tlJMi7xu1TDi1eHLsIs8Jl5i2FqdNN1M6wHxLYWH8V3jIabfoIr5w SZwRUGHNgRYcBiDMKkz31qoMrM/TBTdNHIUomX3b4v9igkSrzcjnhAimaBOC3WoW zXFYyj8ejDhR5uW8GIyCQHMGQx2chiZ77XL/TQAIGL0sI+F0RcSJI63FzlF3dlSs SNB+sKbjOnohG85hW/G5Ejph5+5tH6EZX1KZGLqtN5ZqvXPDMd8DCatbF4ZmpQcn SbdAKBdYzKlAkAG4eiXrxnGJih+xyNFb9kVbIv60UtLyp3QHNVcduEg14bfnMYI= =Mfdt -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
