Hi guys, |

|

Here is the semi-official (and assuming I correctly listed everyone who sent |
4 |
me an email, the official) list of the board of trustees for the NFP: |
5 |
|
6 |
drobbins |
7 |
klieber |
8 |
carpaski |
9 |
pfeifer |
10 |
g2boojum |
11 |
seemant |
12 |
avenj |
13 |
agriffis |
14 |
swift |
15 |
pauldv |
16 |
method |
17 |
azarah |
18 |
|
19 |
This puts the size of the board at twelve, which seems to be a reasonable |
20 |
size. There were others (non-managers or previously selected devs) who |
21 |
expressed interest in serving on the board, and whom I would have liked to |
22 |
add, but I think it would have made the board too big. If you were one of |
23 |
those people, I encourage you to run for an elected trustee position in the |
24 |
future. |

My lawyer has completed the paperwork for the establishment of the NFP, so |
27 |
this is ready to go and will get filed with Santa Fe next week. |
28 |
Establishment of the NFP corporation itself typically only takes a day. I |
29 |
will let everyone know when this gets done. I would expect this to happen on |
30 |
Wednesday or Thursday. |
31 |
|
32 |
The federal 501(c)(6) application process takes a minimum of 6 months |
33 |
(typically 6 months to a year) from the time the NFP corporation is |
34 |
established. I'll try to get our lawyer started on the paperwork for this as |
35 |
soon as possible. |
