If we're going to be a disregarded entity or a supporting organization
(i.e. a subsidiary), what's the confusion?  We get the advantage of
sorting out the money flows totally clearly, while yet still having
the "organized activity" relationship, it seems to me.  Indeed, the
relationship in some ways would be stronger, because there wouldn't be
this funny is-a-thing-but-not-a-thing that the IETF is today.

Best regards,
