First, let me thank Delphine for being quick to respond.

It looks like we need two things -- legal advice (council?) and people willing to do some work.

I'm guessing we should have 10 people -- I'm not sure if we need more or less then that legally for a board. 10 people is a good round number, and it hopefully isn't unwieldy. What do people think?

I think one of our past volunteers started: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Canada/Incorporation

It's a good start. We have to come up with bylaws -- I will look for some boilerplate examples for nonprofits in Canada. That should get us started.

Thanks,
Gerald
