Let's imagine that would be really great if more people involve into developing Groovy, more big features(e.g. MOP2, async/await) are completed and hard issues(e.g. generics of STC) are fixed every year :-)Totally agree with you, just suggesting the wording used is sensitive to existing players. I can help craft wording if needed.
Might be worth thinking about whether existing sponsors would consider giving their donation through the same channel ? Could have different tiers of sponsorship (gold, silver, etc), with respective logo sizes, etc to differentiate. Would lead to a greater exposure for them... I guess it would also not be too hard to integrate a sponsor names or logos into e.g. Groovy console (if Apache allows that)...
