Kbin Foundation when? (kbin.social)

When will there be a Kbin Foundation that:

  1. collects and handles money to help build Kbin (right now I don't see a single "donate" button)
  2. owns any property of Kbin (like domain and git), so that the board of the foundation can decide what's done with it if ernest kicks the bucket or goes insane
  3. has a board that can make decisions about Kbin to spread power from one person to many?

@ernest
I don't even know how pinging works :)

I'll gladly become a donor when I see that Kbin will not be a one-guy-show for long, but a serious project that will outlive it's creator. If ernest is not actively planning to have this project live even without himself, then I bet it's not going to last.

Please comment any thoughts you have, and have a nice summer!

So for non-techy dude that sounds more business oriente in their question, I can clarify that everything that kbin is or can be is public code that anybody can copy and build from.

Correct.

In the long term more stability like a foundation would be best, but I think Ernest needs some time for that, and we have time.
