[maemo-developers] Google SoC 2008

Hi,

> So please tell me how maemo won status of legal entity under Google
terms
> and provided Google with tax statement as an organization ?

We din't provide any tax information and this was not an obstacle to get
approved (but I understand this is not the rule). Because we didn't
provide that information we actually didn't get any money as
organization. I asked around what to do with the money but there was not
a specific plan or something I could simply delegate.
	
I really can't answer your doubts about Google, but I'd say that many
organizations (even some really informal when it comes to legal status)
got approved without much complication, thanks for running something
cool and have a community around it.
