I just realized that we have to become a chapter before Wikimedia will actually let us use the name "Wikisource" (though we don't have to get incorporated first).
Not necessarily.
So I guess now that we have a general idea of what Wikisource Canada will look like, we can use that information to finish the bylaws and then register with the WMF.
We are trying to set up a Wikimedia chapter, not a Wikisource chapter. In due course, maintaining a Canadian Wikisource is not the only thing that WMC could be doing; it's only the one that can be most easily identified.
The bylaws have been almost done for a long time now, and I'm sorry that I'm taking so long finishing them. Hopefully we'll be able to make them presentable before people go to Wikimania in August.
Most of the principal issues are indeed settled, though I think we could still do considerable work on specific wording.
