Well, it looks like neither the Linux Foundation, nor SFOHA are federally tax 
exempt organizations, so we can't use those.

I've come up with a few below which might be interesting:

Some valid suggestions:
*     Wikimedia foundation (runs Wikipedia)
*     Software in the public interest (supports Debian, OpenOffice.org, 
PostGres)

Some probably good idea but might bother some people suggestions:
*     Free software foundation

Some maybe good idea but I don't think we want to go there suggestions:
*     Electronic Fronteer Foundation
*     Comic book legal defence fund



Please note that these are mostly tech-based (though I think wikimedia is a 
nice all-around choice).  If you have more ideas (esp. SF-based), please let 
me know and I'll check them out.
