Hi Martin,

the easiest thing could be to assign the money to the German GRASS Association
(GAV - Anwender-Vereinigung e.V., http://www.grass-verein.de/) which
is a registered, tax-exempt charity to support GRASS users.

For the time being it could be GAV Germany or individual people
or maybe OSGeo (the 501(c)(3) status is still pending since it is
a lot of paperword).
