It was nothing personal at all. My point was and is: You can’t substitute a German non profit with this organisation. Even if you could, torservers.net are supporting all the others smaller orgs, not the other way around. Thats a lot of work organising orgs and also avoiding unnecessary work in one of the reason most orgs have strict reduced exit policies at place nowadays. You get a few 100 abuse mails a day, you have to take care of the servers, talk to people, organise things, make sure everyone is happy. The yearly paperwork for a non profit doesn’t really matter in the grand pattern of things. Take care! > On 8.
