I don't want to sound like a broken record, but I really don't want to get to attached to the idea of a foundation until we have had a chance to sit down with the folks at Red Hat. There are some really great minds there that have been thinking about these issues far longer than I have. People like Jim Jagielski, Brian Stevens, Michael Tiemann, and many others are bound to have years of experience that can help us make the best decisions for the Ceph community. I'm really looking forward to exploring this topic with them as they have been very welcoming so far. If anyone has any questions or would like to discuss the existing thinking around foundation please feel free to poke my in IRC (scuttlemonkey). While I obviously don't have answers, I can at least give you my take on the lay of the land so you'll know at least 1/2 of the pending discussion.
