If it's not convenient or expedient for Carole to do it, SPI might be another option - they exist to provide this kind of service to FLOSS projects. http://www.spi-inc.org/about-spi/membership/guidelines.html PostgreSQL took this approach so they could handle donations, and now has enough money that they're spinning their own NPO out. I think this is the intended model from SPI and IRS perspectives. -Bill ----- Bill McGonigle, Owner Work: 603.448.4440 BFC Computing, LLC Home: 603.448.1668 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cell: 603.252.2606 http://www.bfccomputing.com/ Page: 603.442.1833 Blog: http://blog.bfccomputing.com/ VCard: http://bfccomputing.com/vcard/bill.vcf _______________________________________________ gnhlug-org mailing list gnhlug-org@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-org/
