Re: hosting
Actually, we don't really need non-profit status for this. Many volunteers (including many MCs) offer their hosting for temporary purposes. We use a lot of these during the proof listening process. This has been the best way so far to deal with temporary hosting of files while they are being managed. I also am trying to work out using more of my hosted space for LV, since I'm only personally using 2% of it.
Re: Non-Profit status
This is something that we've had lots of discussion about behind the scenes. Trying to decide whether or not we should incorporate (non-profit), or become a part of Archive.org (which has offered to let us do so). This is mainly to deal with legal issues that can arise with some of our recordings that aren't out of copyright everywhere. We can't really afford lawyers, so...
We have a temporary solution that seems to be working so far, and I think the non-profit status is something we'll work on in the future when LV gets bigger and we really need it.
Re: organizing your work
I think this is something you'll have to work out with time, or just make it look like you're doing it
That's certainly what I do!
Here are a few helpful tips though (I hope).
Head on over to
this search page and search for your
forum name in the "Reader" field. Then click Search, and you'll probably see a bunch of project results. Look way at the bottom of the search results, and you'll see the text "
# reader(s) found:" and your forum name. Click on your forum name, and you can use that page to keep track of your ongoing projects. Soon that page will be more accurate as we move every project over to the new system.
Becky, I think you said you already signed up for an account in the wiki, and I noticed you have a page created for yourself. Some people use their wiki page to keep track of works as well. Here's mine for an example...
