Your idea of, making some improvements to the community as an alternative
of a foundation, sounds good...

I thing I got misunderstood on this. First I didn't tought of a foundation
just as way of getting money, but of providing serveral resources
(not just money).

Just if I have time...
By example, I have a message dialog component in Delphi,
that can be localizated, and it's better to use in code,
example:
----------------
Standard message function:
uses
Dialogs;
...
if (Application.MessageBox('Title', 'Message', [mbOk, mbCancel] = mrOK)
then
----------------
And my replacement
----------------
uses
sdvMsgBox;
...
if (MessageBox('Title', 'Message', [moOK, moCancel] = moOK)) then
----------------
And the message box appears in a desidered language. But need
some time in order to ported to Lazarus.

Maybe.

Personally, im working on that... ;-)
Since 2 years ago, I already have some projects that have to migrate from
Windoze to Linux, libraries, components and so on,
but at that time Lazarus was too inmature,
and I didn't time to help.
Luckily, Lazarus have get better, (thanks to the developers that supported).

Wish I had ;-)
