I noticed the discussion previously about the type of organisation.
I understand Wiki v1 was a Company Limited by Guarantee and this proved to be a bit too
onerous. (

shows the accounts and annual return were never filed)
As someone else has noted the Charitable Incorporated Organisation which simplified the
admin side a little bit is not yet available.
The alternative is just set up as an unincorporated association. More details are here:

The main problem with this is unlimited liabilities - if you are a member of the
association and the association has a dispute with, say a venue, they could sue any member
of the association as they would be jointly and severally liable.
Has this been considered before?
