Naturally there are certain functions here, such as translations where the language based association of individuals should make a team and that team should have responsibility for that function. However, once you step past translation work I do see the clear line that says this group has official responsibilities with other functions performed. Could you expand on that for me, what you mean by 'only official representation' - it would help me understand. > but I completely understand > the needs for local marketing and support.

If I follow what you are saying - if you create a legal entity of some kind, outside of TDF, and then want to work with us that is OK - that is a fairly high bar to set, IMO.
