[EN] Hello to you all,
The ipernity team presents to you all our very best wishes for the new year!
Since the announcement of ipernity’s shutdown, we received many proposals and messages of support either from users and businesses.
With the help of several community members, especially Claus-Peter, Paul (autofantasia), Eric Desjours, and, William Sutherland, the idea that ipernity could be managed by the community has made its way and seems to be the most realistic solution.
We have postponed the date of closing to late February to allow us more time to study this perspective.
We will publish in the very next days a new article with accurate informations about it.
In the meantime, we invite you to join the following groups to participate in the ongoing discussions:

We would like once again to thank you for the support you have shown us for so many years.
See you soon,
Christophe & the Team.

[FR] Bonjour à toutes et à tous,
Toute l’équipe d’ipernity vous présente ses meilleurs voeux pour cette nouvelle année !
Depuis l’annonce de la prochaine fermeture d’ipernity, nous avons reçu de nombreuses propositions et messages de soutien de la part d’utilisateurs et d’entreprises.
Grâce à l’aide de plusieurs utilisateurs, en particulier Claus-Peter, Paul (autofantasia), Eric Desjours et William Sutherland, l’idée d’une reprise d’ipernity par la communauté a fait son chemin et semble à ce jour la piste la plus réaliste.
Nous avons repoussé la date de fermeture d’ipernity à fin Février pour permettre l’étude de cette perspective.
Vous recevrez dans les jours qui viennent des informations précises à ce sujet.
Dans cette attente, nous vous invitons à rejoindre les groupes suivants pour participer aux discussions en cours :

Nous tenons une nouvelle fois à vous remercier pour votre soutien que vous nous témoignez depuis tant d’années.
À très bientôt,
Christophe & la Team.

Good morning/afternoon,
We are still in discussions with Ipernity S.A. re: the future of this site and its transfer. Negotiations are ongoing to protect the best interests of the members. At the same time we are investigating crowdfunding options so we can take the next step when negotiations are concluded.
I remain confident and optimistic there will be a successful restructuring of the Ipernity platform. Because of this, I remain active commenting, moderating in groups requiring this activity and recently posted an article that took time and research, not to mention getting some of my photos I took over the last 10 years and putting them together to present in the article. I would not put in this time and effort if I thought the platform would shut down and everything would be lost.
It is my strong belief that the new Ipernity will be a vibrant and viable platform with a bright, long-term stable future with a loyal membership base ensuring a stronger and more viable platform.
Latest Update
07/03/2017: IMA received its receipt for filing. This allows IMA to begin business -- open a bank account for CrowdFunding and ultimately running the Ipernity platform. It also means the official certificate will be issued in about 2-3 weeks.
Latest Update
William Sutherland
09/03/2017: IMA and Ipernity S.A. are close to an agreement. I'm hopeful it will be attained sometime tomorrow. If so, the terms will be published here. Please know that the agreement if finalized is aimed at meeting the best interests of the Ipernity platform, IMA and the platform's members' interests.
In anticipation, IMA will be establishing a bank account in France and opening a Paypal account to facilitate revenue receipts and payment of operating expenses. IMA also anticipates the start of a CrowdFunding campaign early next week and once it is underway, daily updates will be given. Please know, it is critical people contribute as soon as possible without delay when CrowdFunding is underway since a decision will have to be made within about 2 weeks whether to continue to the platform into April. The combined March and April costs are approximately 10,000 € (Amazon in agreement with Ipernity S.A. allowed the platform to operate this month with expectation that the payments will be made in April).
In addition, please be aware that annual operating expenses for the Ipernity platform are approximately 66,000 €. This does not provide any funds for contingency reserves, future obligations, platform upgrades (for example, future conversion to https protocol as some have suggested), rate increases or other unanticipated expenses or shortfalls. Nevertheless, a stable club membership base near the reported membership figure is more than sufficient to maintain viability and offer a bright long-term future.
IMA thanks everyone for their patience, input, ideas and efforts to keep this site running and for your assistance to ensure a successful CrowdFunding campaign.
