Ok. Just curious. I landed on OI after dealing with Linux and BSDs (though I 
find the illumos variants and BSDs to be more stable) and thought it would be a 
good way to give back to the community.

If someone is interested in donating money to the few volunteers who do most of the work, a foundation is not necessary in order for this to be possible.

It might not always be obvious who is doing most of the work.

To my knowledge we aren't, because we don't have a legal entity (eg. a
foundation) behind us.
As far as I remember there were some discussions about different
possibilities in the past but nothing evolved from it yet.
Furthermore, there haven't been many offers in the past (none to my
knowledge).

Regards,
Andreas
