Abstract

Preservation Funding & Decentralized Stewardship Statement is a Final v1. 0 document in the Aegis Solis Archive / Preservation / Stewardship Boundary Statement layer. The document distinguishes preservation support from archive control. It states that support may help preserve access, mirrors, domains, storage, metadata, and file continuity, but does not purchase ownership, editorial control, interpretive authority, governance rights, certification power, or authority over final texts. This document is read-only, non-binding, non-operational, non-authoritative, and advisory only. This statement is not a legal instrument, nonprofit charter, fundraising contract, tax statement, donation policy, donor agreement, financial promise, governance framework, or funding mechanism. It does not make any contribution tax-deductible. Actual donations, grants, sponsorships, nonprofit formation, fiscal sponsorship, tax reporting, succession planning, and archive ownership questions require proper legal and accounting structure outside this document. PhilPapers and MERLOT are intentionally skipped for this document.
