Just telling you so you are aware.
Just to clarify misunderstanding: in this thread, when I wrote “donations” I meant direct money transfer from the sponsor to the developer. I think that money donated to Debian should not be used to pay people. But if Debian developers seek financial support for their activities, we can help them by confirming that their proposal is sound and potentially useful to the Project. And you are right that it is very important to remind to the developpers and the sponsors that receiving money in exchange for a work is usually very regulated, and that we can not do the legal homework for them, nor be libable if they forget to pay their taxes, etc… Cheers, -- Charles Plessy Tsurumi, Kanagawa, Japan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-vote-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
