It would make sense to set up a Hurd fund if we were confident it
would raise enough money so as to make it possible to spend the money
on the Hurd. However, I tend to think it would not do so. Then we
would be stuck with money we could not spend.

That is enough money that it might enable us to start a fund. However,
we should look for more pledges before actually accepting money.
We would need at least $20,000 to make it useful; that could pay someone
for 6 months.
