How about forming a formal non-profit organization around CentOS with contributors.
The question is "where". What counts as a non-profit in the US doesn't automatically count as one in Europe, for example - that's why there is a Fedora EMEA, too. Which really binds ressources - and the Fedora community is large. Yes, one could to talk to them to see how they did it, I know the people on their board.
If a movement like CentOS is going to survive it's going to have to grow and the only way it can grow is by solicitating donations then depending on the offered ones it recieves now.
