> After over 12 years trying to get the video games studio industry to
> both create and use more open source software and unrestricted hardware,
> Jared Hardy finally gave up on those proprietary-minded fools, and
> started building NELA-ISC.Net instead. In the process of bootstrapping
> this Northeast LA community utility cooperative (still in progress), he
> discovered the catch-22 of funding nonprofit community projects that can
> never take any tax deductible donations or returns-based investments. He
> then started the deductible-donation accepting Data Roads Foundation to
> help solve that catch-22 investment problem -- among other issues
> inherent to all cooperatively owned networks. More about that and his
> other yak shaving projects are available in the links below:

> If the content in these links create more questions than answers, that
> will provide good conversation fodder for Thursday night 6/12!
