Right, but we also have the option to look at organisations dedicated to handle this very problem, like Software in the Public Interest (http://www.spi-inc.org/ - I'm sure there are others). For the record, SPI was initially created to handle the Debian assets, and now does the same for other projects (notably, according to their website: freedesktop, postgresql, oftc).
