"Legal entities" are the ones that take the most time, and the time that is of the least "thank you" factor. Creating a board, voting, keeping records, doing income tax (which still has to be done, just nothing paid)....all the stuff that most of us have fought for so long. As one who has had to start up (and more importantly, close down) a couple of these, it is all pain and no gain unless you really need them. md -- Jon "maddog" Hall Executive Director Linux International(R) email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 80 Amherst St. Voice: +1.603.672.4557 Amherst, N.H. 03031-3032 U.S.A.
