14 DAY TRIAL // The Document Foundation has announced that it has been officially incorporated into the state of Berlin, Germany.
We reported a while back that The Document Foundation has moved to Germany, aiming to become a German Stiftung, a German Foundation established with an endowment and supervised by state authorities.
On February 17th, The Document Foundation has achieved its goal, as the incorporation certificate, signed by the state secretary, was handed by the authorities.
"Those who are approved members have inalienable, strong rights, embedded into the statutes. Since we have been aiming to be a German Stiftung, those rights are guaranteed by law, and enforced by the authorities."
"The Document Foundation is the legal affirmation of the community spirit – an entity by the community, for the community, and an entity independent from any single vendor.” said Thorsten Behrens, Deputy Chairman of the Board of the new Foundation in the press release.
