If you involve such organization and their funding you will be bogged down in endless (and fruitless) discussions, waste your energy in a zillion of useless sub-committees, spend most of your funds on unproductive talkfests, and you have to tip-toe through minefields of political correctness where it becomes impossible to tell idiots that they are idiots and instead you have to allow them to waste your time. I think I have learnt a lot from past mistakes. What I think would work is a small private investment buying software contractors's time to implement specific tasks within a specific time frame.
