[ADMINSTRATIVE] Organizational Planning
In preparing the legal paperwork to establish a non-profit entity, we will first need a charter. Please list the following items:
Name of Organization Purpose or the org. Goal of the org. Board structure (i.e. 5 people, 2 year terms, staggered - director, secretary, treasurer, member, member) Will be setting up non-profit (501-C3) in Delaware or Nevada. Please let me know of a reason you cannot use one of these states.
While maybe not legally required, I would suggest there should be a core set of tenets and principles done as well.
Are there any implications on contributors based outside of the US?
I think this ticket should also cover premk's comment about the emails:

There shouldn't be. We will have to grapple with making certain we are following GDPR, but we should not be working with anything that has export controls. As a U.S. based entity, foreign contributors will fall under U.S. law for most things, except for the privacy rules for publishers and uniform copyright laws.
