Re: [board-discuss] Seeking approval for server procurement

One of our sponsoring companies is offering for-free hosting, such that this is a one-off spending. This would mean, that 1) TDF gets $3k to by any server that then will be hostet by a sponsor for free 2) TDF gets $3k to by a certain server which is available, and hosted by a sponsor for free If it is 2) the board should at least verify and document, that the server price is reasonable according to current server market condidtions. regards, André -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to board-discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/board-discuss/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
Re: [board-discuss] Electing a BoD chairperson and it's deputy
Hi, so, the board has elected Florian Effenberger as chairman of the board and Thorsten Behrens as his deputy. we had 6 out of 7 board members voting (making a quorum). Each of the nominees got 5 votes (as Florian and Thorsten abstained to vote on their own seat). To support the decision we also received 2 supporting votes from deputies. See http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/board-discuss/threads.html#02188 I'll update the website accordingly.

In short - these will be the primary legal representatives of the foundation. While having no special power, legal contracts need to be signed by one of the board members together with either the chairperson or it's deputy. ( Beyond that, the board can decide to give procuration to individual board members.) As we are going to file the papers really soon, I'd ask the board members to elect Florian Effenberger as chairman of the board and Thorsten Behrens as his deputy. During the board elections Florian and Thorsten were the candidates who reached the highest vote rank. Florian is for sure one of our most active members doing great work in marketing, is coordinating our admin team and did lots of preparations for the legal setup of the foundation. Thorsten is well known and accepted among developers (and not only there ;) ), and also helped a lot preparing the legal setup of the foundation. I think, my suggestions in the interest of the board members and all our TDF members.

Re: [board-discuss] CommunityBylaws and actual structure and governance of The Document Foundation as a legal entity
Hi Lionel, Original-Nachricht Von: Lionel Elie Mamane lio...@mamane.lu I'm reading the wiki page CommunityBylaws, and I'm confused. It says These Bylaws do not apply to the actual structure and governance of The Document Foundation as a legal entity (...). Yes, (unfortunately) the current situation has some cunfusing points. We all hope that this will be resolved within the next few (hopefully two) weeks. But then they go on doing exactly that. For example, they explain how the Board of Directors is elected, and by whom. The board of directors is AFAIK usually the people responsible to the law / state / courts that e.g. the money of the foundation is used in accordance to the goals of the foundation. The Bylaws were drafted from a communitie's point of view, when we did not exactly know, what legal model the foundation will follow. So while many things in the bylaws match legal terms ans structure, it is not _exactly_ what we will see in legal statutes. So to me, it is factual that the Bylaws *do* speak about the actual structure and governance of The Document Foundation as a legal entity: they speak about the composition of the BoD, and the BoD is part of the structure of the foundation as a legal entity, and by law the BoD must be involved in the governance of the foundation as a legal entity. Yes, at some points, the bylaws match the legal structure, BoD is one of the perfect (99%) matches. Other examples: * The Chairperson (CH) is in charge of representing the Foundation. This is something we need to change, if the foundation will be approved by German authorities. As you quoted, in German law the Board (of directors) represents the Foundation. regards, André -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to board-discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/board-discuss/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

It is up to the BoD to appoint the new members / deputies (if we do not go for elections). We as the MC would suggest that Simon and Norbert would be considered for such position. We had a brief discussion, if we can suggest a third name as well. We had some ideas but no strong preferences, so we would leave it to the BoD. Btw.

Re: [steering-discuss] Vendor string usage in third-party packages of LibreOffice

To refer to the LibreOffice software in substantially unmodified form. Please note the wording refer to the LibreOffice software. So this chapter is meant for the software itself, not necessarily the vendor of the software. There is another paragraph in the policy: Non Permitted Use You may not use the marks in the following ways: 1. In any way likely to cause confusion as to the identity of TDF, the origin of its software, or the software's license; So in your case, there might be confusion what the origin of the sofware is - you are the vendor, but you are not TDF. Therefore: It is absolutely ok to use the LibreOffice trademark, but it is questionable to use The Document Foundation trademark. If I understand it correctly, the way of building and distributing the pkgsrc version is very different from what we do within our project framework.
