Frank,

Good suggestion about the open source foundations mailing list. I found 
a link to a "Directors and Officers insurance" thread in their list of 
the "Best of the Foundations mailing list" at:

http://flossfoundations.org/best-foundations-mailing-list

The relevant thread is at the address below, but it's a private list 
(why?) and I'm not on it yet. I tried to subscribe and am waiting for 
moderator approval:

If you or someone else reading this already has access then please don't 
hesitate to forward me a copy of the info.

Daniel
