FreeCulture.org, now a real non-profit, needs advice

[Calling all co-op and non-profit wonks... -- McLir]
Here are just some of the questions we have to consider:
* How big should the board of directors be?
* What should the makeup of the board be? For instance, should be it all students? Students and alumni? Others? What ratios/percentages? Should we have a student majority? A student-or-alumni majority?
* Who should we ask to serve on the board?
* Should we have an advisory board? Who should we ask to sit on that?
* Should board members be volunteers, or should we try to remunerate them?
* Officers: what are the roles/titles? (e.g. “treasurer”) What do we need? Who are they?
* Funding: what do we need it for? Where do we get it?
