Hi Jerry,

You are correct in most of what you write so thanks for the effort of
explaining on the list, but please note that we are a legal entity
since 9th of October, 2009. We are declared as a  'Feitelijke
vereniging' (or unincorporated association) under Belgian law and have
registered bank account 523-0803583-13 at Triodos bank:

http://int.piratenpartei.de/PP_International

We are in desperate need to cover costs for our activities such as
rent of space for the PPI conference. You are most welcome to donate,
for international transfers use:

BIC:  TRIOBEBB
IBAN: BE08 5230 8035 8313
