Hi Everybody, mod_perl is a great software. Thanks for everybody who spent time on it and make it available. When you send a reply to this, can you also describe how we can help, as an individiual, to support mod_perl and people behind it financially.
Mustafa, one way to provide financial support is a donation:
http://www.apache.org/foundation/contributing.html
There's a paypal button on that page, and an address for sending checks. The ASF is a non profit org which makes donations tax deductible.
mod_perl relies on the ASF infrastructure for its CVS server, mailing lists and web sites. Donations help fund these infrastructure expenses.
Actually I think it's better to contribute to perl foundation instead. Since it now supports specific grants for specific tasks/people, whereas ASF's donation won't go to the mod_perl developers but will be used to support the global ASF infrastructure (which is of course not least important, but that won't fulfill your goal)
Therefore if you have someone who you want to sponsor you can submit a request for it here: http://www.perl-foundation.org/index.cgi?page=grants
