Yes, I've seen http://grass.osgeo.org/donation.php

But maybe we should set up a page for solved issues and spent money,
and define rules on how to access these money for bug-fixes or new developments.

Hi,
how does it fit with OSGeo sponsorship program?

Fits well :)

I man, GRASS is part of OSGeo and OSGeo get sponsorship at different levels.

- Does GRASS have the right to get a portion of these founds?

Yes.

- What OSGeo think about project sponsor programs?

That's accepted and done in various projects.

I mean, if I give money to support OSGeo, I think I'm sponsoring all of the
OSGeo projects.. isn't it?

Right.
In our case we are doing project specific funding which is possible
only for big sponsors at OSGeo level:
http://www.osgeo.org/sponsorship/opportunities

I think a general guideline on shponsorship (fundation, projects, local
chapters, etc..) should be discussed within OSGeo.

Uhm, why that?

Does anyone have better information on that?

Please check the archive - it has been discussed several times...
