thanks Robin ... in theory, a B Corporation is not such a bad thing, no, as it is and remains dedicated to a social good? Michel On Thu, Sep 1, 2011 at 4:55 PM, robin <[email protected]> wrote:
I am happy this one didn't get done yet. Veit's rant on CS/Casey is personal (although a pretty interesting one) and at the same time Veit is just like a little Khadafi in relation to bewelcome.
It's a long nasty history - the world of hospitality ;-)

Also, Veit's promise to release Hospitality Club code as open source or even as free is almost as old as the promise of having Couchsurfing registered as a tax-deductible non-profit (four years now).
At the same time Hospitality Club is still a personal project/ not a registered organisation with no information about the flow of money.
I've always compared HC as a dictorship, CS as a oligarchy and bewelcome as democracy.
