"I'm not sure how successfully the new organization will be able to raise funds independently or semi-independently of the WMF especially with the possibility that it may compete with WMF for grants and individual donations. I hope that WMF staff have some ideas on how fundraising could be done. I agree with comments that others have made that it's likely necessary to have at least one FTE and the new organization will need to fundraise for the expenses that come with having paid staff and possibly consultants."
Does anyone know if non-profit organizations can apply for government funding? (say NSF funding?) How would it work if individual academics applied for funding? Also would professional societies have resources for funding academics interested in spearheading these types of efforts?
