Evernote (Evernote.com) might be too small for your needs, and it's not open source, but it:
- Has OCR
- Is very cheap ($6 a month for the pro version, free for the light version)
- Recognizes handwriting
- Accepts tags
- Has a web interface (and a desktop client)
Its only limitation is the 500 MB monthy upload cap. Since you have hundreds of files to get through, you will go over the cap if you upload all at once. But since scanning those things is going to take you ages, you might be fine.
Also, if your boss is still collecting paper, he's probably pretty old-school. Evernote is dead simple to use.
Wireless Nomad only has 100 users (I'm one of them). Last I checked, they're not accepting new users, either.
I think, then, that it's a bit much to suggest that WN attracted P2P users like bees to honey. Certainly, you had to be a bit more tech-savvy than most to know about WN, but I doubt its typical user is a 21 year old fileswapping gamer.
Perhaps Wireless Nomad is better seen as a co-operative apartment building than as a typical ISP. There is a sense of community (honestly) that may help keep people in check.
Whoooo. Take a deep breath. You can't seriously be holding a grudge from the early 80s! I mean, I know they're formative years--I still miss Leisure Suit Larry--but seriously, it's time to let go.

Wireless Nomad is still doing just fine. I'm writing over their lines.
What if they don't want to turn a profit? Isn't that worth talking about? And, FWIW, they do make enough to cover their costs. Check their FAQ.
