I've run into the same mix of motivations (including the wacky paranoia about piracy, believe it or not) in a non-profit weekend Chinese language school I was involved in. I think it's just endemic to volunteer organizations and politics in general. As Douglas Adams noted, "To summarize the summary of the summary, 'people are a problem.'"
