HiFo bought this place (including Maemo(TM)) as soon as we meet certain criteria not yet to be disclosed to general public (the contract must not be disclosed). But that does not really matter. Point of sale here is that HiFo will be dissolved and transfer all its assets to Maemo Community e.V. , a registered at court German association which is by design (law) for exactly this matter, a group of people need an entity for liability reason (to bypass the system by handling funds from a private bank account is tax fraud and/or money laundering, for example).
So it was discussed what to choose for our future, as the assets (servers, origin of Maemo) are hosted in Europe the e.V. idea went live - there are some other options like an European Association... a trust like joerg asks for is usually (for cases like ours) managed by a so called Trägerverein another association commonly an e.V. (registered association) too. So a trust needs a trustee, if you do not want to pay a commercial service you make an e.V. trustee -> joerg's idea is that way clustering the situation... we do not want to separate things, we want to make it "one" (garage accounts are included in the MCeV bylaws, its rights can be extended if need be)

For the Maemo Community e.V. webpage, we are waiting for techstaff to grant access or set it up. The frontpages from maemo.org need to be updated anyway so we thought the best place for it would be within "Community", the registration form is ready (last weak) but not published yet. Within that page you will find all information about the MCeV in the future.

As this discussion is going nowhere I suggested a referendum already.

Current design: Council is an institution of the MCeV, garage accounts vote for it
Option 1: Council is not an institution of the MCeV, garage accounts vote for it, no more direct access to MCeV -> people will need to join the MCeV if they want to have voting rights. Council would become a spokesman only (again).
Option 2: we close the Council, people who want to have a voting right need to join MCeV
Option 3: we close the Council and have all garage accounts join MCeV (this is the most stupid idea ever - coders who just want to add content and have no interest in politics or behind the curtains tasks would be forced -> this would also mean that we have to make garage accounts be validated, all of them)

Joerg, stop calling people liar on semantics, technically you did serve backup-services to the maemo infra as the actual party doing it (or you said is doing it) wanted to stay anonymous (you asked for money to be paid to you, so you are the contractor). If you want to fight over the details again find someone who does not know the truth, it is much easier for you to have a false stand if the other party does not know the truth. For the passage I deleted, I deleted it minutes after I posted it as I recognized what you were on about and I do not want to discuss that here.
