Question is, wherefore we actually need trustees and where |
8 |
they should hail from? See, I'm from Germany and I can't do |
9 |
stuff like opening a bank account in the USA. Also I have |
10 |
some difficulties with US tax stuff, but that's something I |
11 |
can learn. |

My aim for being in this board was to have somebody present |
14 |
from an area with a lot of Gentoo users. Being present at |
15 |
the fairs and conferences over here in Old Europe. And I |
16 |
wanted to improve the connections between the local |
17 |
organisations in Europe and the Foundation. |
18 |
|
19 |
I still think that we should have such a person in the board |
20 |
of trustees. Beside that we need some trustees who can |
21 |
really manage this Foundation and finish all the |
22 |
paper-stuff. |
