I simply want freenode to keep on being a great IRC network, and to support it financially and legally as I have for a long time now. ❧

Simply?

What’s the long term plan/goal here in owning and controlling it? If it’ out of the goodness of your heart, why not set up a foundation and donate the money to that? Why need/have corporate ownership or control unless there’s some other motivation?
