Zitat von Chitlesh GOORAH chitlesh@fedoraproject.org:
Now, here is a list of those contructive comments: (Discussed on 08 Mar 07 Meeting:)
- a swiss bank account (proposed by JoergSimon) o before or after LinuxTag ? - not yet decided - ChitleshGoorah o Austria is also nice with tax! - ClausReheis
The goods and services tax (aka MwSt or VAT) is in Switzerland 7,6 %. This is much lower as in Germany (19 %) or Austria (20 %). Please correct me when I'm wrong. But this is only one side. Switzerland is not a Member of the EU (sometimes are there problems with the delivery over the european borders) and the costs for bank tansactions are around 3-5€ (transaction from a swiss account to an account in Germany). But the "bank secret" (Bankgeheimnis) is known worldwide.
- 214€ from CLT by ChitleshGoorah and JoergSimon - first deposit as
an example to follow
good idea :-)
- a non profit organisation, and sell things through a shop, there
are no tax at all normally (or at least in france)- ThomasCanniot
About this point. I will try to find out how this is in Switzerland.
- bank account managed by a legal entity (not by an individual) -
ThomasCanniot
I agree with Thomas. Maybe there is a way that Red Hat Switzerland (or elsewhere) will open an account in the name of the Fedora project and two or three ambassadors (from different countries) are responsible for this account.
This are just my thoughts...
