Jimmy-
I'm pleased to announce the existence of the Wikimedia Foundation, Inc., a nonprofit corporation organized under the laws of Florida, United States.
YAHOO! Ahem, sorry, no trademark violation intended. Great to hear that it's called "Wikimedia" - I really like the name.
I suggest not submitting this to any major news sites (*cough* Slashdot *cough*) until easy options for donations are in place. So let's keep quiet about this for a while, OK? I know it's hard :).
Thanks for checking up on this, Jimbo, and good luck in dealing with the bureaucracy. Sorry for being intrusive, but sometimes it helps ;-)
All best,
Erik
