Thanks Stef --
Let me encourage all efforts in this direction. There is absolutely no problem with Squeakers using Squeak to make money (especially to help Squeak).
Cheers,
Alan

Hi
Right now even if we want to give money to Squeak we cannot. There is no place where I can support Squeak by paying a kind of shareware fee or even to get a CD with all the Squeak material. In the school of my wife they are paying around 1000 $ for office and they don't use it so I do not see why they would not like to get a good cd with the major release on it.
This is the same here at the University we could support Squeak but at least there should be a way to give money. I hope that ESUG will not lose money this year and that we will be able to give the purcentage we promised to Squeak. But at the minimum we need to be able to do that.
I'm fed up to see that people are afraid to make money with Squeak because this could be a problem for SqueakC. Alan said it was not.
So are the German Squeakers in the mood to get money? I can send you the cd with all the material I collected. Tansel what are your plans?
