OpenOffice,
I have been using AOo for a few years and just donated $50 in Bitcoin.
The link to donate was hard to find. I think you should put the link on the top main
menu, just to the right of "Download"
Thank you for all of your hard work.
Regards,
Until the people demand politicians establish tax credits for
contributions to Open Source Software, it will
never be a viable alternative to commercial products. Companies that
fund, and individuals that donate
time or money to OSS, will always be at a disadvantage in the market
place. Their work can be used by
companies that don't contribute, which gives them an advantage over
time, and they become dominant.
This is the fatal flaw of unbridled capitalism, what empowers the greedy
to take over. By not giving credit
to individuals and corporations that serve the people, those that don't
gain control. When the only
alternative people are offered is Socialism, the system oscillates back
and forth between two unworkable
options until the system fails and the society dies.
Support Rand, he's one of the few who understands the concentration of
power is what's causing America
to fail, not which party holds it. When people are empowered to solve
problems, things get better, when
government or large corporations take over, things get worse.
