You are welcome! IMHO you got it right in your initial posting.
I'm irritated that Steven is spreading FUD although Mark's documents
clearly states his intention [1]:
The PSF seems to be the obvious organization to coordinate funding.
Mark is asking the PSF to organize a fund raiser and to act as a
trustee. This is the most logical and reasonable approach. We don't want
to have another requests incident, do we? For stage 2-4 Mark is also
willing to put his reputation and financial security in jeopardy *and*
give the PSF half of the income in exchange for little risk.
