[atlarge-discuss] NZ incorporation potential and pitfals

[Jeff Williams <jwkckid1@ix.netcom.com>]

All stakeholders or other interested parties and members,

  I wish to again remind our members that as the subject of
incorporation,
and as to where, has been bandied and discussed for some time now
on and off.

  Let's be clear about two things here.

1.) This organizations is definitely NOT a US organization.
2.) There is not legal way to register this organization at present or
in it's present
      condition as a international corporation, profit or non-profit,
hence there
      will be for the time being anyway, no .INT version of our present
organizations
      name.
3.) Incorporation in New Zealand has some advantages that have been
properly
     and nicely outlined by David.  Thank you david for doing so!  >;0

4.) Incorporation in New Zealand has some definite disadvantages for non

     New Zealand residents.  Those being, but not all inclusive the
following:
     a.) No legal rights what so ever regarding members that are not New
Zealand
          residents.
     b.) Tax disadvantages as to the creation of other chapters on funds
collected
          via the membership.


  Therefore as in keeping with the democratic precepts of this
organization
it would seem reasonable and proper for the membership to vote upon
options available for incorporation.
The offers or possibilities thus far as I know them (See archives this
forum)
are as follows:

1.) New Zealand - Offered by Dave.
2.) France - originally offered by Jefsey
3.) California, USA - I believe Eric and Brett both offered this as a
possibility
4.) Delaware - Jeff offered this one.


  I would be to each members advantage to investigate independently
these
options for themselves and Chirs is so fond of suggesting, so as to make

a good informed decision as Judyth has wisely offered as council.

Regards,
