In the USA, a 501c3 organization that sees revenues of over about $10k needs a fairly extensive board, officer insurance (to protect board members from claims about misappropriating funds) and other legal stuff. I considered this years ago, but decided that it was not worth the effort. > On a nonprofit, because obviously, you can't make profit, you can't get anything back from what you created. I do not agree with your assessment. I do not want the "company" to be "worth" anything. The software is the value, and in keeping with the open source license, the software is a gift to the rest of the world. There merely has to be sufficient revenue associated with it to allow people to work on it at an appropriate level. Profit and "value growth" is not part of the goal.
