As you know, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gentoo.org\/news\/en\/gwn\/20060417-newsletter.xml#doc_chap5\">Corey left the project<\/a>.  He was a trustee as well, and he was both the Treasurer and group contact for the foundation&#8217;s legal team.  Two months ago or so, he finished up the 501(c)6 application, and mailed it to trustees for comment.  A month ago he handed off the group contact to me, and so I&#8217;m in the driver&#8217;s seat for the application.  There were not many comments on the application, so we decided to send it off to the legal team for their review.<\/p>\n<p>So, as things currently stand, the Foundation&#8217;s counsel has us in a holding pattern while they consult experts and review our application.   As soon as I hear back, I will report back to the trustees.  I&#8217;m hoping that the process will now move along with haste.<\/p>\n<p>Please stay tuned, and many many many thanks to <a href=\"http:\/\/tsunam.org\/\">Joshua<\/a> for reminding me to blog about it.  I must confess that this info as at least two weeks old, and thus I give my sincerest apologies for the late reporting.<\/p>\n<p>Please do feel free to email me, snail mail me, call me or \/msg me if you have concerns and\/or further questions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>..is a question on quite a few minds lately.
