Dear $ALL,

as some of you might know/remember, back in 2017, some members of X2Go,
along with members of other remote desktop/remote application projects,
founded the Open Remote Computing Association - orca e.V. in
Treuchtlingen, Germany.

orca e.V. is sort of an umbrella organization and provides the legal
framework for the individual sub-projects (currently Arctica, FreeRDP
and X2Go) - and also allows them to collect donations.

orca e.V. is a registered association [0] under Germanys Civil Code [1]
and also registered as a charitable organization, similar to a 501(c)(3)
organization [2] in the US.

As such, donations to orca e.V. and its sub-projects like X2Go are tax
deductible for German tax subjects.

However, until now, we were only able to accept donations via wire
transfer. This has now changed, thanks to the kind offer by
betterplace.org - In addition to wire transfer, they also offer PayPal,
SEPA Direct Debit, Credit Card, and giropay/paydirekt as payment
options, and you can choose between a one-time (which is the default), a
monthly, or an annual donation.

So, if you can spare a few Euros for us, kindly make a donation towards
X2Go at <https://www.betterplace.org/en/donate/platform/projects/111056>
- but if you can't, don't feel ashamed. Times are rough, we get it.

Regardless of whether or not you are able to make a donation - we'd
appreciate if you could spread the word on social media, e.g. by
retweeting this tweet:
