At PyCon, we had some brief conversations with folks involved with the
European side of Python activities, and Travis also had some
conversations with the PSF (which is a US-based c3 non-profit).  I
hope that over the next few weeks we'll be able to clarify some all of
this and start offering a solution for the very problem being
discussed here.

I'm doubly motivated to make this happen both as part of NumFocus and
b/c I want to do the exact same thing regarding IPython funding.  In
IPython we've recently incurred expenses that are well beyond my
'pocket change' comfort zone, and we need to recover those costs.

So stay tuned, it won't be days before we know, but hopefully not more
than a few weeks and we'll have a slightly more coherent answer to
report.

Cheers,
