Definitely.  But setting up and maintaining the status of a non-profit
organisation is taking serious effort.  And it would be rather tricky
for me to participate in the board of such an organisation since I would
be set to profit from the board's decisions.

I am checking out the options I have as a private person, but I am not
exactly optimistic here.
