[Foundation-l] A PC instead of a VC

[Geoffrey Plourde]

Don't you have to find an individual to sue them as well?

Hoi,
You can sue an individual for what THAT individual does. If a fear of being
sued prevents us from doing anything, we do not deserve the success that our
projects are. The WMF can help people who are sued because of no fault of
their own. I think this would be an appropriate spending of funds.
Thanks,
