Due to legal reasons the original language of this document is german. This translation is based on the german version as of 2005-02-09.
Language Versions:

The scope of the OpenPKG Foundation is an international one, hence our correspondence language is English.

On the other hand, the OpenPKG Foundation is established as an organization under German law, so for legal reasons the reference versions of the Constitution and Bylaws have to be in German.

Hence the Constitution and Bylaws are provided in both languages!
