<body>
<h1>Members</h1>
<p>
These are the members of the Free Software Foundation Europe association
in alphabetical order.
</p>

<h3>Structural Information</h3>
<p>
The people listed here are members of the legal body (association)
providing the skeleton of the Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) --
it is important to understand that they are only one part of the Free
Software Foundation Europe.
</p>
<p>
The <a href="self-conception.html">common understanding of the FSFE</a>
will tell you more about what the FSFE really is, the
<a href="/about/legal/">legal structure</a> will tell you more about how
that legal skeleton has been set up in detail.
</p>
<p>
In general terms: although perceiving itself as a truly European
organization including, but not being limited to, the European Union
(EU), there was no usable legal basis for establishing things legally on
this level.
</p>
<p>
Therefore a modular structure had to be found in which local chapters are
attached by constitution, guidelines and members to a central
organisation, often referred to as the &quot;Hub,&quot; which is the main
body of the FSFE. This Hub (by happenstance) turned out to be a
charitable, registered association in Germany.
</p>
<p>
All people listed above are members of that Hub.
