Chris,
I think invite you and other people interested in this to join us in our meeting this Friday[1].
The MWStake group is currently working on incorporating so that we'll have a 501(c)6 [2] that can gather and disseminate funds so that work on the wishlist items has money behind it and (hopefully) motivated workers.
We'll be discussing as well as the next *MWCon in D.C. this Friday. Please join us.
