well, could you please check your fact before publishing them on a 
mailing list?

from my side, i have some vague ideas, who could eventually help us 
setting up an association in switzerland, but i have not done any real 
steps in that direction.

other lgm tasks have needed all the resources i can give to the lgm 
lately...

anyway, a swiss assocation might be a lightweight entitly that can 
easily and cheap process payments to any country in the world.
now, if there was any chance that i would volunteer for the 
administrating the lgm finances that would be a very intersting way... 
but since i'm not, other way might be more interesting.

ciao
