The current organization for OE is a German e.V. legal entity (similar to KDE: http://ev.kde.org/) and is for the purpose of managing finances, voting, and membership.
An 'e.V.' for 'eingetragener Verein', in the German law, translates to a voluntary organization; a group of individuals who voluntarily enter into an agreement to form a body (or organization) to accomplish a purpose. The organization has members.
The OpenEmbedded e.V. statues are located here: http://docs.openembedded.org/organization/2008-11-22_statutes-de.pdf
A bablefish translation is here -- could German speaking folks please clean this up: OpenEmbedded e.V. Statutes
During FOSDEM 2008 in Brussels, Belgium, a group of founding members physically gathered to get the paperwork going.

OE Developers
Openembedded Developers are people who have submitted code into any of the OpenEmbedded repositories. Due to the nature of OE, there are many developers, and also many different components. A good place to start is the list of git repositories [1]. See OpenEmbedded Developers for a list of current developers.

Faq
- Are contributions tax deductible?
- Yes they are.
- Should I become member of the OE e.V.?
- If you are contributing to OE frequently and/or you are interested in getting involved in administrative or organisational tasks it might be a good idea to join OE e.V.
- How do I become member of the OE e.V.?
- Let an existing member introduce you by sending a short introduction to the 'ev' mailinglist. If you don't know one get in touch with us on the development mailinglist or IRC first. The e.V. is open for anyone to join and its not meant to be an exclusive club of a few developers.
- Is there a membership fee?
- Whist an e.V. can define a membership fee, the project has not chosen to set one.
