Agreed that finding a fiscal sponsor does seem like the best option and that doing nothing is irresponsible. Largely for reasons that have already been articulated. By way of context, I currently sit on the Boards of two non-profit corporations and had some involvement in setting up a

Having created a non-profit, I can say that there's quite a range of ways to structure and govern such an entity. Code4Lib can't really be bottled up into any legal entity, so even if a Code4Lib entity were created to provide fiscal continuity for the annual conference, the relationship

I still think the same thing I posted first time this was on the listserv. I think a fiscal sponsor is the sweet spot, if a suitable fiscal sponsor with suitable terms can be found. Incorporating ourself takes a lot of work and additional expense -- both setup and ongoing. It's a real commitment.

I'd like to thank Eric, Carol and Tim for resurfacing this thread, Like Tim, I disagree with Eric's ordering, and would place chartering at the top of my list (with incorporation second and doing nothing last). I am not sure why Eric thinks that obtaining fiscal sponsorship from another

Thanks for bringing this up again, Eric. The first time around I pretty much sat on the sidelines and watched. This time around, I'm waving my hand vigorously for the incorporation option. Since 2009, when EBSCO began indexing the Code4Lib Journal, royalties have been accruing but unpayable
