Alternatively, is anyone else in this position? Maybe if we pooled our resources and did this as a co-op with a handful of other small #FLOSS projects we could amortize the cost of doing taxes and maintaining a bank account and business entity and all that across all our projects and make it worth it?

    @sam it would be a lot of work, but it seems like it would be a worthwhile endeavour. how would you structure it? incorporate as a not-for-profit, a member cooperative, or a worker cooperative?

    @sam I can potentially help. Running costs for a new cooperative in Finland start at about 2000 €/y. Are you saying Open Collective Europe wouldn't take you?
