[Foundation-l] Mission & Vision statement updated

Wed Apr 25 21:06:52 UTC 2007

Just a quick point here: the Foundation may not change its mission  statement 
without an official determination letter from the IRS. If the mission  is 
changed substantially (and that is determined by the IRS, not the WMF mailing  
list), the Foundation could lose its 501 c 3 accreditation. 

I am confident that the Board is aware of this, but do suggest that the  word 
"draft" be included with every newly formatted mission statement so that  
there is no misunderstanding.
