sponsoring ZFS development on FreeBSD
Hello My question is concerning sponsoring the FreeBSD project and ZFS development in particular. I know I am just a relatively poor person so I can't contribute much (maybe on the order of 20-30 euro a month), but I keep seeing FreeBSD core team members keep mentioning we value donations of all sizes, so what the hell :) Anyways, in the past I have directed my donations to The FreeBSD Foundation, if I want to ensure that as much of my money as possible goes directly to benefit the development of ZFS support on FreeBSD, should I continue donating to the foundation or should I be sending donations directly to specific developers? Sincerely - Dan Naumov ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

If you click on Donate there's a box where you can enter the project(s) you'd like to see funded. Although ZFS isn't currently listed as a project, I'm sure there's enough interest from the community. -- Pieter de Goeje ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

I was laughing at the combination of response and responder. well - it's quite a big difference between your donation proposition/question and the former one.
