The roadmap might look like the following: 1. Return to financial health by completing tax compliance, and hiring a bookkeeper / accountant for ongoing accounting work. 2. Exploration of umbrella support of the organization. 3. Dissolution of the Foundation with assets transferred to said umbrella. It might contain timelines like: 1. The board expects to secure an accountant by August 2018 and return to financial health by April 2019. 2. Exploration of umbrella support will begin by August 2018 and last until Dec 2018 (at which point the board should have an umbrella selected, or not.) 3. File dissolution papers and transfer remaining assets to umbrella by August 2019. I think this sends a much better message than some non-binding statement (not that this timeline is necessarily binding either.) -A > -- > Matthew Thode (prometheanfire) > --089e08329e5c09245c056962cd89 Content-Type: text/html; charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

I would propose that in lieu of the motion = requested by Matthias and Andreas the board should put forth a roadmap
to dissolution. The roadmap might look like the following:
=
  1. Return to financial health by completing tax compliance, and hiring= a bookkeeper / accountant for ongoing accounting work.
  2. Exploration= of umbrella support of the organization.
  3. Dissolution of the Founda= tion with assets transferred to said umbrella.
It might conta= in timelines like:
  1. The board expects to secure an a= ccountant by August 2018 and return to financial health by April 2019.
    2. =
  2. Exploration of umbrella support will begin by August 2018 and last unti= l Dec 2018 (at which point the board should have an umbrella selected, or n= ot.)
  3. File dissolution papers and transfer remaining assets to umbre= lla by August 2019.
I think this sends a much better message = than some non-binding statement (not that this timeline is necessarily bind= ing either.)
