Still not sure why one should register in spite of having a "bank account and potential corporate donations". What is wrong with the current arrangement and secondly what are the potential benefits of formalizing this entity. I think someone on the list raised an interesting point namely the kind of answers the registrar would need which boils down to the issue of identity. What is skunkworks? So far almost any topic under sun of interest to "techies" is discussed. So to me the identity of skunkworks is not clear other than the members having a "techie" bent to them. I think one needs to know who they are before formalizing that arrangement. It is akin in my view to writing a constitution because others are doing so yet one does not know who they are and consequently what they shall have in it. As an aside, one can explore a formal "skunkworks" that people can choose to opt-in and keep the current entity as is.

Things I would wish the new server would do, in addition to the usual mail listing work; 1. Host files; ISOs, apps, music, videos etc. Nothing illegal though 2. Host applications, interesting web based apps, for testing purposes, e.g. that twitter trendy app, or that FB Poll app 3. Host the skunk discussion forum 4. Act as a sweet target for script kiddies or hacker wannabees 5. Serve mails with 99.9% uptime, 6. Make it possible to finally donate the current P3 server to charity 7. ... And whats really your issue here? Those who wanted to buy a new server donated, those who did not, didn't, its as simple as that.

Many things like what? Can we get a listing here.

Strange. Your question appeared.
The server is for many, many other things. I'm sure many guys would love to have access to a server on-line (and cannot afford to buy hosting). That's the whole idea with having a server.

All mails asking questions on the server are being blocked. There is something fishy here and I dont know why Skunkworks must buy a server to run a mailing list. Why mailing list? Are we this backward? Do we really need to have SKunkworks permanently on a mailing list? Aaaiiii

@Owicho, did u make a contribution towards the new server? I have checked the contribution list and apparently, i think your name has been blocked. Just asking.
@Peter Your number four... what if a script-kiddie brings down the server hosting the ISOs, non-illegal stuff and the list? @Charles LOL On 08/04/2010, Charles Mwangi <mwangicharles@gmail.com> wrote:

We find the loop hole they used to bring it down, then fix it! I am assuming that, given the technical expertise on this list, that server will be among the most secure in the country! BTW, is it possible to have a security system which not only defends against attacks, but also attacks those who try to hack it? I think i saw something similar in a movie before...
Charles Thanks for asking that and to Peter thanks for putting your thoughts down. I have not contributed because Skunkworks has refused to go legal. Without legal mechanisms we cant hold anybody to task. And when people start fearing divurgent views we cringe. I like the part in which Obama says, "I will listen to you, more so if you disagree with me". Why is Skunkworks not legal and if we have not hosted any applications and not done anything beyond yapping in mailing lists before, how sure are we that we will be able to hold the people to task?

Looks like the possible uses of the server are listed, not exhaustive. Theus, On your point about 'Skunkworks going Legal' - that's really up to guys to discuss and decide. It's one of those debates that has not been concluded. Agreed - Accountability is important -- Josiah Mugambi On Thu, Apr 8, 2010 at 12:05 PM, Theus Owicho <owichot@gmail.com> wrote:

Josiah I believe that with 75k in hand, we even have Mike here who is a lawyer and is a specialist in ICT Law. Why not give him the mandate to advice us on what is legal. We can approach him and ask him to help us make this legal. I have Ksh 5,000 and I am ready to give it to a legal entity. Not to people who will go spend it on Java Coffee and then claim that they had surplus. Every penny counts here. Legalising the entity should have been the priority Owicho On Thu, Apr 8, 2010 at 12:09 PM, Josiah Mugambi <jmugambi@gmail.com> wrote:
