Tyrone talked about fiscal sponsorship. Since our 501(c)3 status is still pending, and we can expect it to stay this way for some time, it may be pertinent to seek out a registered nonprofit as a fiscal sponsor. This is for example how FBF operates now.  Tyrone said that he will investigate potential organizations to collaborate with, such as Software in the Public Interest, which currently sponsors FBF, Debian, and other excellent projects.
