When will there be a Kbin Foundation that:

  1. collects and handles money to help build Kbin (right now I don’t see a single “donate” button)
  2. owns any property of Kbin (like domain and git), so that the board of the foundation can decide what’s done with it if ernest kicks the bucket or goes insane
  3. has a board that can make decisions about Kbin to spread power from one person to many?

@ernest
I don’t even know how pinging works :)

I’ll gladly become a donor when I see that Kbin will not be a one-guy-show for long, but a serious project that will outlive it’s creator. If ernest is not actively planning to have this project live even without himself, then I bet it’s not going to last.

Please comment any thoughts you have, and have a nice summer!

    kbin is just a bin of code that everyone can toss into, there is no singular domain to own.

    There is kbin.pub and the main branch git. Just because forks can continue working if the main kbin git gets messed up, compromised or whatever, it doesn’t mean that the development wouldn’t be in serious trouble in the real life. It would be far from smooth
