Re: Project funding: was State of skarnet.org projects
Finding long term sponsors is a kind of sales I'm not experienced in, but I can probably get people to contribute on a one-time or intermittent basis. Do you have a contributions page that takes Paypal? I don't, for the reasons explained here: https://twitter.com/laurentbercot/status/1209247040657674240 Also, I want to make a living, not pocket change; I want a job, not charity. As good and well-intentioned as one-time or intermittent donations are, as much as I would appreciate them, if they don't add up to something I can live from, then they don't help solve the original problem of my needing to work on paid contracts. -- Laurent
