Aside from issues with Patreon's reputation, there's a reason I wrote "kickstarter". I can't think of any instance where I've seen tangible rewards for supporting *an open source project* via Patreon. Conversely, Kickstarter offers *specific* rewards of the payee's choice, and often involves some sort of public "thank you" (which I don't think I've *ever* seen with Patreon). Besides, I was thinking more along the lines of something that could integrate with other OSS tools (e.g. GitHub). I want a "proud sponsors" page. I want to be able to offer bounties for specific bugs or feature requests. (IOW, read the rest of my previous message that you didn't quote.) -- Matthew _______________________________________________ Development mailing list [email protected] https://lists.qt-project.org/listinfo/development
