+1 to both of those, including the trimmed detail. > - Red Hat has generously offered to fund hosting, in return for > recognition as a sponsor of TOS.o. 0 on that because recognition should be limited to an acknowledgement.

The domain is too important to leave in the hands of someone who could (although we hope will not!) be incapacitated. I feel it would be better to transfer to a community legal entity such as SPI-Inc.org (for example) until the group prefers its own entity.
