Thanks Vero, Huidae and Jeff for all your corrections !

Concerning the link, it should actually have been

https://grasswiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Sponsors

Is that better ?

Moritz,

Yes, that link should work. The table of contents looks better than four
individual links.

Hi Moritz,

As well as Vero's changes, please also change:

Dear all,

We just received our very first sponsorship contribution of 2021
(thank
you !) and I want to profit of the occasion to remind you that
the GRASS
GIS project also needs some financial support in order to:

- organize very valuable face-to-face meetings and sprints
gathering
developers and the wider community for a few days to concentrate on
improving GRASS GIS

- fund some specific fixes or enhancements (this year the use of
micro-budgets for such fixes is planned)

- maintain our website

- produce some marketing material to spread the word

You can see the list of past sponsors here:


https://grasswiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Sponsors#Individuals_who_have_sponsored_GRASS_GIS



As you can see, no amount is too small: if all GRASS GIS users
give just
a small amount regularly, we will already have a sizeable budget
to work
with ! And I challenge you to find software that does all that
GRASS GIS
does for 5€/$ or 10 €/$ a year ;-)

So, just go to https://grass.osgeo.org/contribute/sponsoring/
 and help
us make GRASS GIS better.

If you want to see more details about how we use the money, note
that
the project budgets are public. For 2021 see
https://grasswiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GRASS_GIS_Budget_2021
.

Hi Moritz,

It looks good and I agree with Vero. I just have one more comment. Why
don't we add direct links to companies, associations, and institutions?
Since the individual list is long, which is great, that single link kind of
gave me an impression that it's only for individuals? I just had to scroll
down to find other entities, which, I assume, can contribute more
significant amounts. It'll also help potential individual sponsors see that
GRASS also has received/is receiving corporate sponsorship, and feel the
significance of the project.

Other than that, +1 from me.

Best,
Huidae

Hi Moritz

Thanks for this initiative! I really like it!

Only minor things:
- Since we sign as PSC, then I'd replace "I" at the beginning with "we"
- remove the word "some" from points 2 and 4

For the rest, I have no objections at all :)
+1 from my side

Cheers,
Vero
