Re: [wikimedia-pt] Fwd: WMF Mission Activities Grant Approved - PT

Caros, Acabo de receber finalmente o email sobre o nosso pedido de subsídio que esperávamos desde o dia 30. Felizmente, valeu a espera! Foi-nos concedido o subsídio, embora os gastos iniciais tenham que ser feitos por nós, já que eles requerem um comprovativo do nosso estado "non-profit", e isso só podemos adquirir após a legalização, que tem os seus custos, a sair dos nossos bolsos. Obviamente que esse gasto seria depois reembolsado quando viesse o subsídio. Entretanto, eles acrescentam "if available", quando referem este documento. Ainda não e informei da natureza que tal comprovativo terá aqui em Portugal, se é que existe tal coisa. É caso a averiguar. Mas de qualquer modo, urge que avancemos com a legalização. Se bem me lembro, duas pessoas bastam para tratar disso, os estatutos estão prontos, pelo que falta apenas o dinheiro. Pensei em fazermos uma lista de pessoas interessadas em contribuir (quantas mais pessoas, menos tem que contribuir cada uma), e depois juntar tudo para atingir o valor necessário (231€ se não estou em erro). Temos que tratar disso o quanto antes, pois quanto mais demorarmos a fazê-lo, mais demoramos consequentemente a receber o grant. Sugiro que se inscrevam aqui: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Wikimedia_Portugal/Angariação_de_fundos <http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Wikimedia_Portugal/Angaria%C3%A7%C3%A3o_de_fundos>, se tiverem disponibilidade e interesse, como é óbvio. Vou colocar uma mensagem na wiki, mas sugiro que os interessados adiram a esta mailing-list.
