I looked into this at one point about a year ago and came to the conclusion
that time per se is not tax deductible; products on the other hand are. So
if you write and donate an app that is valued at x, then I think you can
claim a donation of x. But avoid putting it in terms of your time.

big disclaimer, I am not a tax lawyer :)

If someone knows for sure, I would like to know.
