Hi Martin,

Likewise, as with Otto, I'm not sure what an affiliate organization from FSFE perspective means. Anyhow, COSS ry is certainly open to deepen its relationships internationally, e.g. with FSFE.
Yes, we should work together in future, and I am looking forward to do so. If you have any specific tasks in mind, please let us know.
It is just very unlikely that there can be something formal like the associated organisation program with organisation which have “open source” in the name. E.g. in Germany we also work closely together with the Open Source Business Alliance. But the name prevented us from having them as associates (and as explained in my other mail, we also have to reshape this program). This was not a problem for getting work done, though.
Best Regards, Matthias
