Activities

Currently none, in the past we have attended Linux exhibitions and conferences but those seem to have dried up/gone out of business in Britain. A 4.4 release party was held in Glasgow in April 2010. We had a meeting in Stirling in October 2010.

Legal Status

We are an unincorporated membership society with a constitution and a bank account at Bank of Scotland run by Jonathan Riddell. You can apply for membership by writing to the secretary (Kenny Duffus). Membership is open to all e.V. members in Britain and any other active KDE contributor in Britain.

At our October 2010 meeting we agreed to register as a charity, this will let us claim back Gift Aid on Join the Game donations. Jonathan has now dropped this idea, the paperwork needed seems excessive for something with little backing from KDE e.V.
