Dear members and friends of ipernity,

1) Last Sunday, March 29, 2021, the Ipernity General Assembly 2021 took place. The previous Board of our Association was discharged for its activities in 2020. The proposed amendment of the Association's Statutes and the proposed increase in membership contributions were approved by substantial majorities.

2) The following links provide information on the course of the Assembly and the results:
● Agenda of the Assembly.
● Activity report of the Association's Board for the year 2020.
● Report of the Treasurer for the year 2020.
● Audited and confirmed Annual Financial Statement for the year 2020.
● Minutes of the Assembly.
● The newly elected Board of the Association.
● Amended Statutes of the Association.
● New membership contributions as of April 1, 2021.

3) We kindly ask you to read the amended Statutes carefully because they describe your rights and duties as a member of our Association. We will be pleased to answer any questions you may have.

4) If the Statutes are not provided in your mother tongue, we suggest that you read them with the help of a machine translator. We recommend DeepL Translator because it produces the best translation quality.

5) The agreed increases in membership contributions shall apply from 1 April 2021. Article V, Section 4, of the amended Statutes will apply only to membership contribution payments made on or after April 1, 2021.

6) Finally, we would like to thank the departing Board members Eric Desjours (President) and Rob Stamp (Technical Supervisor), as well as the departing advisors Sami Serola (IT issues) and Christian Bucher (privacy issues) for their tireless, dedicated work and excellent achievements. Each of them stepped up in helping ot operate our website as reliable as possible and in to improve the user experience constantly. We very much regret their departure, but respect their personal decision.

We look forward to serving you as the new Association Board and appreciate the trust you have placed in us. Despite the adversity and restrictions because of the COVID pandemic, we wish you a Happy Easter and a safe, healthy and prosperous Spring/Autumn season ahead depending on where you live.

Your 'new' ima team

We are trying to reduce our workload with this edition of the News. The machine translations by DeepL are now of such high quality that neither the preference for a few languages can be justified, nor the high effort to format several versions. We ask for your understanding.
