At a risk of being attacked for not understanding the project or not
following IRC or whatever I'd like to point out that you absolutely
don't need any of the above. There are companies like Software Freedom
Conservancy who will push the papers and manage the funds for you. We
(Inkscape) already work with them.

SFC in particular accepts donations via PayPal, Google Checkout and
wire transfers. I don't know if they can take more projects at this
time, but I can certainly find out.
