The Linux Picnic also already operates on a model of corporate sponsorships.

3. Establish a committee of the board to revise the budget from our draft 501(c)7 filing for our 501(c)3 filing.
4. Propose changing the membership structure from a dues-paying system to a Meritocracy (government by those who make accomplishments) system similar to the Apache Software Foundation's model.
