Good idea<br><br>> To: squeak-dev@lists.squeakfoundation.org<br>> From: klaus.witzel@cobss.com<br>> Date: Wed, 4 Jul 2007 13:15:36 +0200<br>> Subject: Support this project<br>> <br>> Gentlefolks,<br>> <br>> I just returned from www.stellarium.org, they (like many other free open <br>> source projects) have a "support this project" button for people who want <br>> to donate money to the project.<br>> <br>> I'd like to suggest that the various Squeak projects have their own <br>> "support this project" button. This perhaps makes it easier for interested <br>> parties to donate some money. Many people (like me) don't want to buy a <br>> piece of supermarket, but rather just some groceries for their mouse :)<br>> <br>> Donations to projects can be used for (for example) representing projects <br>> at events, buying hardware for the developers, printing CDs or <br>> documentation, and other related marketing activities which require money <br>> in support of visibility.<br>> <br>> And of course regular transfers can be made from a project's funds in <br>> support of the more general activities (community server, etc).<br>> <br>> What do you think?<br>> <br>> /Klaus<br>> <br>> <br><br /><hr />See what you’re getting into…before you go there. <a href='http://newlivehotmail.com' target='_new'>Check it out!</a></body>
