CAcert is planning to partner with local Foundations and Associations, formed on a non-profit basis. The Foundations can provide local support to events, and more clearly handle donations and other revenues.

Oophaga -- Netherlands

The [http://www.cacert.nl Oophaga] Foundation (Stichtung) is a Dutch organisation formed for the purpose of providing hosting support in the Netherlands. Oophaga coordinates support from non-profits NLNet and HCC, local suppliers BIT and Tunix, and hardware suppliers SUN, Dell, Cisco, etc.

Oophaga also represents the DutchCommunity.

Balimbing -- Germany

Project [http://balimbing.de Balimbing] is a plan to form an Association (Verein) in Germany to handle CeBIT, LinuxTag and CCC events. Still in the planning stage, needs your help.

Call for action: German resident members required to help! Help your GermanCommunity to show the Dutch how it's done...
