Aye. I also want an organisation here which has Linux as 100% of their
mission and constrains their activities.  I dont mind if they support
other activities, but I want to know the committee struggles each time
they consider a proposal which isnt clearly Linux orientated.

There are other organisations which are aimed at broader targets like
Open Technology, Open Knowledge, etc, etc. and LA should support them
if they have too much money that cant be invested into Linux.
