There was a lot of talk about this in #4, but this seems like a better place to discuss it. Some have suggested that HH ought to form a legal entity to protect things like ie domain names. This isn't actually a terribly difficult process but it will take time and some money and is something that should be done extremely carefully (#fuckitshipit is terrible legal advice.)

What are our thoughts on this?

(Also, to be clear, I mean a nonprofit corporation, not a 501(c)3 specifically. That can be discussed in another issue, but I don't think it's necessary to go that far given our expected capital flows which are presumably less than what it would take to get the proper paperwork together to become a 501(c)3 -- essentially, 501(c)3 status is something that the IRS assigns to an already existing organization.)
