Hi, if you need help setting up a non profit organisation I am glad to help: I'm a lawyer, and a happy darktable user (and I've also asked how to donate to darktable some time ago)... I can offer help setting up a german e.V. (nonprofit association, like KDE e.V.). That looks like something I can give back to darktable. It could be either a "darktable e.V." or a "Libre Graphics e.V." with a wider scope. But of course this only makes sense if the developers like the idea, and if somebody wants to be president.

To start a non-profit you need a quorum of a certain number of people to get together physically. So far this hasn't happened, though there might be a chance that it will at the next LGM in London if enough DTers show up.
