I think it would be a good idea to hire Jonathan as an independent
consultant for Koha Fund, while the committee continues to work on the
legal bylaws. Because the delays to have this properly discussed and agreed
have put Jonathan in a difficult situation right now (unemployment). And it
should be explicitly stated that once the legal bylaws are figured, the
decision to hire him (and the terms of the contract) would be revisited by
the comitee.

Please join forces to have this sorted ASAP. All this legal stuff is scary
to read and fully understand, but at least add your +1 to support people
working on this.
