Once upon a time it used to be so, but that was mostly an initiative of
Dominik Vogt, as far as I know.
Because FVWM is not an organisation and has no structure per-se, there is no
one to manage such finances. As such, any one person cannot manage nor
benefit from such donations, nor are the developers of FVWM plentiful to
make donations useful.
We do not have anything pressing or in progress where monetary aid is
important or even welcome. If anything, bug-reports and users'
gratification is often enough.
I would personally also like to think that any one developer of FVWM is in
this for the fun and not the personal gain of money through ad-hoc, if well
received donations. I know for myself, I do this because I like to.
So I thank you for your offer, but would say: "No".
